Shooting feral cats (legal?)

[gst]

Just this winter some friends had two hunting dogs with collars come into their yard and kill and maim several sheep and goats before their son could shoot them.

These dogs came from just a few miles away.

A few years back a neighbor and friends lab came for a visit two nights after we weaned calves, ended up with a well pipe gate hung on 4 inch casing laying on the ground and one dead calf and a couple injured.

We have also lost two cows in a pasture when a neighbors two german shepards were chasing cows in the pasture on a day that was in the 90's. I told him where he could go pick them up.


Dogs I know get one chance to be taken home. That's it. Others not so much.

Cats in the country......no big deal to me until there gets to be too many.

Growing up a neighbor had wolf hounds he ran coyotes with. When they would get out he would call everyone to make sure their kids were in the house till he caught em.

After I saw what they would do to a coyote if he didn;t get it away soon enough I can see why.

Hahaha....cats are liberals and dogs are conservatives....some shithead will probly start a thread on FBO over that comment to.

Austrailia is on the brink of losing most of its unique wildlife because of cats, and currently trying to exterminate millions of them. I think many island countries and territories have or are making cats illegal to own.

Australia you say? I'm on my way mate!

I've seen dogs pack up. They will revert to their wolf instincts eventually. They can and have attacked people.

That is a special situation though. Like in the fact the people think they need a dog but can't even take care of there kid so the dog learns just to survive. Till I moved here from over east I had only seen such things on movies.

Some of my relatives have farms on the Spirit Lake res. Don't get caught on foot out checking the cows
Dogs running on the res will eat your ass.

An acquaintance brought a predator hunting magazine back from Australia. Front cover was an electronic call, a rifle, and a half dozen cats. They hunt them like we hunt any predator.

we had a serious cat infestation where we grew up. lots of old barns, sheds, garages and all around dilapidated buildings on that side of town. and spaying and neutering weren't really common. so, strays were common. and on our south facing deck, the smell of cat piss would get almost unbearable in the heat of the summer. my dad spent one summer taking care of the problem via .22 cal bolt action from the upstairs bathroom window.

i took my friends to the garbage can one night to show them the results of that days sniper action. took the lid off the can and opened the paper bag inside. in the light of the flashlight, two eyeballs peered back at me and swayed from side to side. then the damn thing jumped right at me and took off into the night. scared the living shit out of me and my two friends. my dad didn't believe me when i told him what happened. anyway, the next day at lunch, the cat was wandering aimlessly down the alley. dad took care of business manually that day. different times those were.

one thing i just don't understand is the amount of folks that don't spay or neuter their pets. even on the farm. it should be a rare situation where cats get so over populated that they become a problem. when we have cats that show up at our place, if we have any inclination we are going to let them stay, they get fixed.

I have 2 outdoor cats for mice. The one is scared shitless of humans, the other not at all. Keep tripping over the damn thing. The one that isn't afraid, likes to get into my garage. That SOB pisses or craps in my garage again, we will be down to 1. I have almost 0 tolerance of cats after seeing one family (girl, guy 3yr old daughter) had 8 cats in a trailer house with piss and shit everywhere....... Filthy critters.

Garage smells of cat piss, shed smells of cat piss. Almost want my mice back instead of these bastards.

Wolf Hounds. (gst)

The story was told to me back in the 1950.
A neighbor friend's grand parents had wolf hounds to catch rabbits and foxes and whatever.
When I was young one neighbor also had wolf hounds and he would use them and his snow plane (home made) to hunt with.
My dad would tell me stories when he was young (1900) and seeing wolves and other animals no longer around. One time as a young lad he was left with a lasting experience when a wolf came up to the barn.

Anyways, one day this guy's hounds came up on a pack of wolves and gave chase. Wolves went in various direction and so did the hounds. He was left with only a couple of hounds after the chase and they were in no condition to keep on living. No dead wolves.

The story has always been with me since my older sister would read the story about that girl in red going to see her grandma across the river when I was little. You know in the original story the wolf did eat the grandma before its head was chopped off (at least that is how I remember my sister telling the story. I think the girl was ate to, been to long and am not sure of how she told the story).
But now and then I think about it. db

And then some say they cut the wolf open and put stones in the body and then he runs and dies from the stones.
How far out can one get in changing a story.? db

Yeah, thats something I don't really talk about. lets just say its has been over a year for that specific issue. The trailer has been demolished and um lets just say the 3yr old (actually 5 now) is out of that situation.

Did I say I hate cats? useful, but nope.... My wife doesn't like it when I sik the dog on the cats when they are in the garage... I just laugh.

Before I had this disdain for cats, we actually had 4 kittens. My dog killed 2 within the first week, the other 2 got run over about a month later. These ones have lived for about 7 or 8 months..... until they piss in my garage again.

I'm still bugged about the whole "panty waste"/"panty waist" deal.

So are they making fun of someone that pulls their panties to far up on their waist so as to give them self a wedgey to get all worked up about?

You can;t just make insults up like that without them meaning something.

Panty Waist
(Noun)-(Pan tee wayst)One who's manlihood is in question. A Sally. A bitch. Of military origin.

Okay any of you military guys know where this came from?

Pant·y·waist

(păn′tē-wāst′)n.1. A child's undergarment consisting of a shirt and pants buttoned together at the waist.
2. Slang A boy or man who is considered weak or effeminate.

That insulting definition of “pantywaist” (sometimes hyphenated as “panty-waist,” sometimes rendered as “panty waist”) first appeared in the 1930s, according to the Oxford English Dictionary, about twenty years after the first mention of the garment itself. It’s not a common usage, and, as might be expected for something considered derogatory, it shows up mainly in letters to the editor, editorials, and, now, blogs.
David Carr used it on the Media Decoder blog at The New York Times in a discussion of a new book about the Murdoch takeover of The Wall Street Journal: “Again and again, the new owners of The Journal see the newspaper’s critics as left-leaning pantywaists and ‘Columbia Journalism School’ types,” he wrote. (“I chose the word because I was trying to ape the kind of critiques that I read,” he said later.)
“Pantywaist” has a tinge of Victorian archaism about it, since not many remember its origin. And it has a tinge of Britishism about it too: One British columnist started calling President Obama “President Pantywaist” last April, and while the nickname hasn’t exactly zoomed to the top of the charts in the U.S., it has been used a number of times. Most slang of that time has joined the Carolina parakeet in extinction (Quick! What’s a “flivver”?), but “pantywaist” has survived, along with “hoosegow,” “gin mill,” and “golddigger.”
Regardless, it is an insult, so should be used with care.

I think it's more to do with panty waste aka the crud that ends up in the panty crotch .

Some shoot 701 and some do not. To each there own. At times there maybe a need to that's best for all. I do not (at least as of now have never even raised the weapon, but would not rule it out) but if one does maybe best once shot, one walks away with noting said. My wife, kids and grand kids would think different of me if I did and I do not want that. Db

Now that we have clear up murdering cats gst got me thinking about wolves.
so I took my stero down from when I was a kid with its variable drive and play one of the records from my childhood. Great story and great record player that works without REA which we did not have those first few years. Lived on 32 volts, delco batteries and a washing machine engine. Db

And the grand kids love their free roaming cat, dog and my record player. Db

And there is nothing worse than going into cold storage, fire the gold wing up after it's winter nap and the hyd clutch does not disengage the clutch. Db
