Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Millennial renters,.....

I'm not going to be her Mama.

I don't think that's what she has in mind. I think she wants you to take care of that skunky pussy.

Nah. I'm old enough too be her old Papaw. She's just a young girl that hasn't learned how to be out on her own yet.

She'll get there.

No but if you're hiding in the bushes it'd be entertaining.

The worst tenants I ever had were young couples renting a house for the first time. It started at the start when I got the contract back from them and they went ahead and changed all the parts they didn't like including the length of the lease which we had agreed upon earlier.

I should have trusted my gut and tore the lease up right then and told them to pound sand. Instead I printed them a new one and told them that's how it was and I wasn't changing anything. They then accepted it and went in to make my life hell.

I ended up selling the home to someone else that wanted to be their landlord. I would have made a bunch more if I would have kept it a few more years.

Simple enough, set a cat trap/cage and when you catch any take it out of town and shoot it in the trap. Empty trap on to ground then repeat as necessary.


Just bait with a tin of the cheapest cat food.

I try to trap and shoot the day before garbage pick-up.

Pix of the renter? I know that you have hidden cameras in there.

Old timers liked to use the corn cob and turpentine method on dogs.
Probably work on a cat.
Add it to your. Idea, and if the cat ever got out again
He wouldn't want to come back.

$100 that’s a future school teacher.

I usually go about things like this by setting up one of these box traps. Then release in the woods and dispatch with a shotgun, mostly because I don't want to shoot a shotgun around the farm.
Maybe tell her you're going to catch it and release it elsewhere. What you do with it then is up to you.

I would leave mr whiskers head unpainted.
For effect and not to be cruel.

A nice neon green front shoulders to tail would be stunning.
And if anyone has tried to give a cat a bath.
Well we know how that goes.......
LOL!!!

You're spot-on about the Mama thing. They just haven’t learned to cope. Funny that the male half of the enterprise hasn’t at least tried to solve the problem, which might lead to him “ benefitting”.

Buy the nice girl some of that awful-smelling animal repellant and tell her to sprinkle it everywhere Mr. Whiskers tinkles. After smelling that for a while, she’ll be yearning for the gentle scent of cat piss.

i thought i was a bad renter when i finally complained to my landlord about snow coming in the crack in the wall in my first place.

There were cats in my old neighborhood that like to go under my porch. I sprayed a small can of pepper spray under there and they never came back.

Exactly. I can't imagine calling my landlord because cats were pissing on stuff. Its what they do. The landlord's responsibility is to maintain the house...keep the heat and ac running, fix broken things, etc.....NOT neighborhood animal control. Heck call animal control instead of him.

There is a cat lady down the road from me that has developed quite the feral cat colony. They piss on stuff around my place but its only a minor annoyance....but I do have sinus problems that probably help.

OC on bushes definitely keeps cats away and a skunk is about the easiest thing a guy can trap with a Havahart.

But I’m inclined to believe these phone calls were made so when you walk through the house and smell nothing but piss and the sticky icky, she can say “Yeah I told you about.”

If you're worried about the cat, there also these devices that emit a vey high pitched beep when their motion sensor detects something. Inaudible to most humans but it keeps the cats away. Obviously don't just shoot the neighbors cat right away.

The key to happiness in the rental business is picking your renters. After a long learning process, I have found my renters. Confirmed bachelor carpenter/handyman and a confirmed bachelor taxidermist. Their shacks are only 100 feet apart, but they get along fine, could you imagine women living that close together? In 7 years, not once, have they called me to do anything. They won't even let me buy the materials. Only thing I have done for them was take the Cat over there and build them a 100 yd rifle range and a 50 yard archery/pistol range.

Neighborhood macaws are cool unless they're right behind YOUR house.

Ask me why I know?

Lol.
