Cat Prison

[Azraele]

Any cat that comes withing grabbing distance of me gets fixed. There are too many unwanted kittens/kitties out there.

So either someone in the neighborhood leaves food out, or the cat finds enough field mice to become a glutton.

A lot of cats have several "owners", and get food from every one of them :^D

Just spayed another cat today. Got the bites to prove it. Rescue denied her and her kitten just pissed all over her adoptees house.

Had to pay $100 to buy back the kitten this week, had to pay $86 for her mom today.

Have an awesome black furry cat running to my door (and across an insane street next to a school each morning), that I worry will be run over. I need to get at least three kittens moved out so I can move that one in and find a home.

As much as you piss most every other poster here with your hollow boasting and angry dismissiveness of others, for this, Alky, I stand and applaud you. :thumbsup:

Wow bro, I have a feral colony 30+ cats strong and birds steal their food.

Wow you really are completely insane.

I live in S. Florida. We don't get really cold winters. I have to bury a lot of kittens during that time when I am putting out $100 of food a week.

I'm afraid that food is part of the problem. You cannot provide enough, it just allows the ferals to be healthy enough to breed. Eventually there are too many mouths to feed and you get more bodies to pick up.

Less food, fewer dead kittens in the long run.

Ugh, I refuse to even look at that photo gallery. My cat was a stray, and the first thing I did after taking her in was have her fixed. I can't change the world and don't want to feel like shit about things I can't control.

They came with the property bro

Is this the person who lived there before you?

We have birds singing morning and night at food time too often.

Just to tell you, the song bird arguement is by those that don't understand their argument but will fight till the death for it.

Like it or not, cats are the number one killer of song birds. Also, helping a feral colony is not necessarily helping the cats. Overpopulation and disease are just a few problems with feral cats.

You hear that a lot, but I don't know how anyone determined that. Birds are the minority of cat kills. Cats like ground critters and insects much more.

I heard it from a cat-hating environmental science teacher back in highschool. I've also watched one of my ma's cats sit under a bird feeder for hours waiting for the bird he was going to murder.

Cats kill millions of song birds each year, pricks belong in prison.

Considering that birds can FLY, I don't really have much sympathy for a bird dumb enough to get caught by a cat. Fewer crap-bombs on my car, as far as I'm concerned.

Besides, SOMEONE'S got to deal with the starling problem.

Song birds just make a bunch of racket and shit on my cars, deck, roof, fence, etc.

Yeah birds kind of suck. I'm more worried about the chipmunks.

 

[Brigandier]

Songbirds are awesome, chipmunks are not.

Quit feeding the birds. They wouldn't come around to yards and get eaten by cats if people would just stop feeding them.

Yeah, I guess that works. Just like it would if people stopped feeding cats.
