You don't see the connection between a cat on your property being a matter of annoyance to you, and you playing loud music enough to intrude upon the comfort and enjoyment of your neighbours?

Unfortunately there's simply no point in my continuing with someone whose character development is so immature and so focused on his own narcissistic little world of selfish convenience.

Backyard Cat-Killer... Quote:

I dont play loud music. Why would I ? That would annoy the neighbours.

What about the rest?

Except for a very rare few, I have always had selfish pigs for neighbours.

I can't wait for the introduction of private Gated Communities as they have in America and South Africa.

I would buy a house in the one that advertises that no inconsiderate arseholes may apply for residence.

That means cat-killers too.

Loud music players.

Bouncing basketballs on concrete driveways for hours on end.

Whole weekends ruined by having to listen to the incessant screaming of small children in a neighbour's pool.

Dogs barking almost incessantly from boredom and anxiety for not having been properly socialised.

Trucks parked in quiet residential streets ~ totally ruining the domestic ambience of the neighbourhood.

etc.

Snappy tom mixed with rat poison. Works a treat. If your cat does not come onto my property then there is no issue.

I'm not sure what state you live in, but in NSW cats are allowed to wander. They are very lax laws, but years ago when they were tougher and cats were caught and euthanised, too many owners lodged complaints.

I've been upset at stray cats coming onto my property also, but would never think to inflict such a torturous death on them by using rat poison.

You are fortunate that you are anonymous here, because your actions are illegal and could result in a gaol sentence.

Have you thought of setting traps for these animals instead and then taking them to the nearest vet or pound to have them euthanised?

Another notice went up in our street on the telegraph poles.

"Lost Cat. Two Years Old". photo, and etc.

All these 'Lost Cat' notices mean nothing more than that their cat has been killed by a neighbour. 99% guarantee.

Cats don't get lost if their owners feed them.

Cat killers are usually lower-working class, suffer from poor self-esteem, are grossly immature, poorly educated, borderline-retard, have victimhood mentalities bubbling just beneath the surface, are too immature to be capable of empathy, and are full of righteousness about themselves.

Come to think of it, there's an awful lot of these losers registered as members here. Cool

He was sick of finding cat foot prints all over his car. So he sees this cat under the car, gets the .22 out, gets on the ground, and the cat came up purring and rubbing its head on the end of the barrel. Turned out to be a pretty easy shot.

We had an old cat that belonged to the group of flats I live in.

This hairy piece of crap cat used to come over at night and belt the poor old bastard up.

One night I was out the front having a smoke and here’s this cat walking towards me on the foot path.

I stomped my foot and hissed at it………and it took of…..straight under a passing car – bumpity bump!!!

They are proud to be cat killers and enjoy making the death of an animal as slow and painful as possible. It is sickening.

Whether people believe in karma or not - it always comes back to bite them when they least expect it.

I don't want to denigrate anyone in particular, but there are some members who appear to lack any humanity but get a thrill out of being sadistic.

Animal cruelty goes hand in hand with cruelty to children and females usually. Many abusers are males and bullies - yet are cowards when another male stands up to them.

At my local vets there's a whole wall covered in personal notices asking if anyone has found their lost dog or cat.

The saddest notices are those that promise a huge reward, with a note saying their little daughter is missing 'Cinderella' the pussy-cat very badly etc.

Cats are Value Added domestic creatures.

They start off as just ... 'a cat'. Furry thing on four legs. No name. No history with a family. Just your basic raw material.

And then it gets taken into a household, and it's behavioral 'modification' begins. It learns things that it's ok to do, and things it mustn't do.

It also develops its own personality and unique behaviour patterns. I've never had two cats that acted the same.

With each 'communication' between the cat and yourself and the family, it becomes increasingly a Value Added member of the household.

It becomes personal. There's empathy and understanding with each other. The cat works its way into your affections, and becomes a valuable part of the furniture in your psychology and your contentment with life.

Animal cruelty by children is a fairly accurate indicator of personalities that mature into people who have limited empathy with their fellow humans - they graduate into the Dahmers and Milats of the world if left untreated.

Every classroom in this country should be encouraged to keep some type of dependant animal. The care and continual upkeep of such menageries is both instructive and formative.

If you can't be trusted with a pet at 10, you can't be trusted with a child at 20.

Totally agree MANTRA.
Totally agree. Wink

...as for lil Sarah with the photo of her lost kitty Cinderella?
Well there are more 'appropriate' pets to fall in love with innocently, than cats these days.

What I find sad also are couples who are wealthy but prefer to spend money on more 'manageble' PETS than have kids.
People who have money and treat kids like PETS (like Celibrities).

Women who forsake having kids for whatever reason, usually something they won't discuss.
Then try to compensate with animals down the track and treat them like 'children'. The small white fluffy dog is a dead giveaway. Roll Eyes

Sums up the attitude very nicely. Thanks Herbert.

It's an attitude borne of accepting a reality that can never be changed. In these cases I simply move on. I don't become maudlin and filled with guilt and regret.

Our own politicians of all parties also don't give a damn. It would need them only to sign into law that all domestic cats must be de-sexed ... not just the females, and any cats found not de-sexed would incur draconian penalties upon the owners.

But the pollies have done absolutely nothing to address the problem of feral cats.

There's no bounty ... there's no bating ... there's no law to scare the shyte out of cat owners who can't be bothered to have their moggies de-sexed.

It's like trying to paddle away from a 20 foot tsunami wave approaching the beach. I prefer to just relax and enjoy the ride.

The dice are weighted overwhelmingly on the side of these outback pussy-cats.

***********

All it would need is for the federal government to give our Chinese community franchise rights over Australia's feral cats so they can trap them as an industry for export to China's restaurants and road-side eateries.

Cool

But you can change the outcome. You don't need to eradicate feral cats to save the remaining native species. All the hopeless cases are already gone. The rest just need us to keep cat numbers down by killing them at every opportunity.

I like your ideas. But we don't need to give the Chinese franchise rights. We already slaughter more than enough cats to supply a market, if it became legal.
