So she could have live trapped it and dispatched it with a .22lr?

No, you obviously are clueless about the preferred method of dealing with feral cats.

First of all, there is no substantiating information that this cat was feral and could very well have been someone's pet.......but I digress.

The preferred method in dealing with FERAL cats is now TNR........Trap, Neuter and Release and is the method recommended by virtually every rescue agency and veterinary clinic throughout the country......

And you obviously have not read my previous posts about the problems with TNR. There is still cat crap to deal with on MY property that I don’t want MY dogs eating. And there is still the problem with the spread of disease and parasites. I should not be expected to have to deal with these things on MY property because of someone else being irresponsible.

The cat in question did not have a tag or collar and as far as I can tell was not chipped. Why would anyone think it was someone’s pet?

Of course, and it just so happens the people making those recommendations make $$ providing that treatment.

Also ironic that the majority of those agencies making those recommendations kill thousands of animals.
