And people laughed when we voted to put feral cats on the small game list here in Wisconsin. Speaking of which, now that retard Doyle is out of office we should push that through again.

Caterwauling humans are such pussies.

Are you sure they're cats you're hearing.

We're going to need a lot of kitten mittens.

Must be no Korean restaurants in that neighborhood.

All they need are a pack of coyotes

//or an explosion of Korean restaurants

That's easy. You just need to slam some beers, eat a can of catood and huff some glue. It will make you all dizzy and the next thing you know you're sleeping right through the noise.

Let me know when the cataclysm ends.

This would make me stock up on .22 pellets. Maybe a 10/22 with a suppressor.

Aw the furabies are the bestsest widdle animals evar SQUEE!

Cats are useless creatures and if you let your property wander around outside then don't cry when something unfortunate happens to it.

Thread over now?

Jake Havechek: Must be no Korean restaurants in that neighborhood.

You forget that these are poor neighborhoods and the residents cannot dine out frequently. However, they obviously need to get online and print out some recipes.

I am of the firm belief that if humans are wiped out, cats would be running the show.

I guess Zampano finally died, then? Does Johnny know?

In the agricultural lands of my youth, we used a .22 magnum with a 10x scope to great effect.

I have a few running around my building here, thanks to my cat lady tenant. They drive the pit bulls next door crazy, but we haven't had a mouse sighting in years.

Clearly there is not enough masturbation going on in that neighborhood.

I live in Koreatown in Los Angeles. So I am really getting a kick out of most of these replies. Some of you guys are very good at making it sound like you know what you are talking about. But trust me.... You don't. I think you just want to make yourself sound smart, when in reality you dont know what you are talking about. This is how bad info gets passed around. If you dont know about the topic....Dont make yourself sound like you do. Cuz some Farkers belive anything they hear.

I knew this would happen once Zampano died...
 
2011-11-22 09:29:39 AM
Egads, I love cats and I'd still say the vast majority of them need to be put down. With that many competing for food, there's no way even half of them are healthy.

Came for the 'Cats of the Rooftops' reference, leaving disappointed.

To anyone who cares. Small arms fire does not draw attention. By small I mean .22 cal. If used responsibly and you don't miss or cause property damage no one cares. I have been keeping feral cats and dogs as well as skunks possums etc. out of our common area. For years. Nobody says a word about it. Had a lady whine about it once. It take her long to figure it out when she had to start cleaning garbage out of her yard. Other neighbors pointed out that didn't happen till she started yappin on about it. Now she points them out. Just pay attention to your target so you don't shoot someones pet. Is it healthy looking and wearing a collar? Does it sit in the open? Is it shy around people? This keeps the area clean for our pets. No vet diseases. And no injury from territory fights. Just be a good shot so the animal doesn't suffer.

You don't want those trap and neuter people one ZIP code over. You want these trap and neuter people in your neighborhood.

The sterile ferals guard your territory and keep the breeding cats out. Plus there a few immunizations that happen along the way.

If you're a fan of bubonic plague, hantavirus or any other annoying rodent borne fatal disease, by all means trap and kill the cats, and burn a few witches while you're at it.

Those aren't cats; those are Mexicans howling and mating outside your windows.

I only like cats in cartoon form and dancing with Paula Abdul.

Yeah they don't eat feral cats, they are fed on garbagem, they only eat grass fed cats.

Or you could just keep your garbage inside until garbage day and not have a rodent infestation that necessitates a cat infestation.

Set out 12,000 dishes of antifreeze.

Problem solved.

yeah you might not want to use a mosin nagant for this.

then again it would be awesome.

It is said that in Los Angeles, which lies beyond the river Skai, no man may kill a cat; and this I can verily believe as I gaze upon him who sitteth purring before the fire. For the cat is cryptic, and close to strange things which men cannot see. He is the soul of antique Aegyptus, and bearer of tales from forgotten cities in Meroë and Ophir. He is the kin of the jungle's lords, and heir to the secrets of hoary and sinister Africa. The Sphinx is his cousin, and he speaks her language; but he is more ancient than the Sphinx, and remembers that which she hath forgotten.

Geeesh...very sad. Glad to see someone is making an effort to help.

I, for one, welcome our furry overlords.
 
2011-11-22 09:59:06 AM
I would imagine the small rodent population in the area is well under control.

The catch and spay/neuter programs have proven to be the most effective way to control population. It's too bad we don't pay taxes to some body that would employ people to take care of this problem.

It's called a 12 gauge, look it up.

It's LA, no one will know the difference between your gunfire and random gang gunfire.

Hey, I didn't know it was Caturday.

There's some kind of chemical reaction when you combine cat food and glue that makes you sick so you're able to sleep.
