    Just throw some cat nip on the neighbors car (if you don't like them) or ground. Should help.

    I live along a river and deal with racoons, woodchuks and stray cats alot. A steel live trap is the simple solution for a critter that is causing problems. Put some non-poisonous food in it in the evening, and you will have your creature by the morning. Put the trap with critter in it in the back of your truck and take it for a drive. Let it go and go home....done.

    I disagree. Sometimes salty language is required to make a point to people that are not listening. Just my .02

    I remember when you lost him. and I’m glad you found him! Idk why some are saying OP or others should poison the cat or dog. I have found lost dogs before and called number on the tag. only thing i hate is when others don’t care enough about their pet to find it. we have had cats and some dogs come around for a month or more. and tear stuff up, try and get in the house and the garage try chasing them off but dose not work, no tags to call anyone. I would not kill a dog or cat unless it tried to hurt me. Air soft guns seam to work ok. and they don’t hurt bad at all. just kinda sting.(i have been shot probably 100,000+ times) I don’t care if a cat is around as long as it’s not scratching the car/truck or messing stuff up and getting into the garage.

    Put a bowl of antifreeze outside. Cats will drink it. They will die. Problem solved.

    The issue with all of that is... THEY ARE NOT MY CATS! Why am I going to spend a ton of money and effort to stop some damn animals another person thinks they need to feed. Fucking morons. There need to be cat laws, just like there are dog laws. I do not want my yard and house filled with animal shit, from animals I do not own

    When you find a place that has no cat sor dog roaming around then you let us know about it. And dosent seem that hard to put a trap out and call animal control to come pick it up when something is in it. just sayin

    Wax your truck really well. After the first attempt to jump on it and slide off they won't jump on it anymore. Or put sticky traps all around the truck...

    AZ Law needs to get fixed so what can do something about the cat problem here. They are considered free range animals and you can't touch them. Trap and release only works if you don't get caught by some "Cats are better than people lady", then she can report you. I would gladly see my tax dollars go to a trap, spay, and release program as they will eventually thin out naturally. But there is none.

    You can call the cops on a barking dog, but if it is a cat that is up to no good in your neighborhood, animal control can't do a damn thing!

    We have a zombie cat that they feed out of my work. I mean, it is missing one eye and has not voice. We have security footage of it fighting off three coyotes on night. The thing smells and looks like it is carrying the plague. I don't care that security feeds it, I just wish they would do it near the loading docks, some place out of sight.

    I am not a fan or neighborhood cats that everyone feeds. They should either be IN a home with a family or left to survive off the land and provide a public service by eating all the rodents.
