I'm sure they got someone's pet every now and then, but it was mostly cats that had gone wild.

It was quite a sport back in the day. It's easy to get a dog to chase a cat, as it just comes naturally to them.

Just talk to your neighbor and it it happens again, tell them you will shot the cat. i am sure they will not want to loose a member of their family.

No, I am not going to shoot the cat. I dont have a 6.5 Creedmore, so that's out.

No, I am not going to poison or trap the cat either, it's someones pet and is just doing what cats do.


So, what I am looking for is some kind of cat repellant , something that wont stink US out of the house but will discourage the cat.

Any ideas?


A BB gun will.sting and discourage the cat

Way back around 1968 or 69, a Black guy who had a BBQ joint was arrested and convicted of killing dogs and cats, cooking them in order to make his meat go further. I didn't eat there, but I knew some people who did, and they were all pizzed.......just as I would have been as well.

Though it's against the law, people used to sell game they'd shot to the local Blacks. I've done it myself, selling them rabbits when I was kid, kept me in shotgun shells. Anyway, some enterprising soul killed and skinned some kittens and passed them off as squirrels. The Blacks found out, and thereafter would only buy skinned animals that still had the paws attached. I'm guessing fried puzzy didn't appeal to them.

air soft, or better yet, a paintball gun. Send that pussy home with a booger green ass and his owners might get the hint you don't appreciate him running the neighborhood. Works great on deer and squirrels too.

If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Story made the rounds in Hopkinsville, that a person was searching for their lost dog, and found it's collar in the dumpster behind the Chinese buffet. Seems they had a dish called Kung Foo Poodle.

I like the paintball option. You can shoot it and not kill it, but it'll leave a mark in more ways than one.

If it were me, I would do a several phase approach. Cats leave lots of feathers, wings, etc. from a bird and possibly the cat neighbor doesn't realize that their cat is killing birds instead of mice and the like. I would gather up some bird pieces as evidence and maybe have a picture of their offending animal and have a civil conversation with the neighbor. Unless you are some kind of hermit, you really don't want an adversarial relationship with your neighbors. You are lucky that you have only one cat to contend with and you know where it comes from. After that if nothing changes, the animal control officer is your next ally. I had a barking dog next to a rental that was costing me tenants and a couple $125.00 fines from the city was all it took to get the dog gone. After that I'd get my pump up Sheridan with two pumps sighted in for cat yardage. Cat hide is tough and a domed pellet to the butt would likely be all it would take. Those darn cats do run away all the time and it could lose its collar and take a road trip to a happier hunting ground, what ever that means to you.

Can you make your feeder taller so the cat can't jump to get them?
