Cats in my area get on truck at night! Any ways to keep them off??

Tell your dog not to eat shit? Go look at my previous post about IPM. It should help you. Hey! You could even use your dog as a way to remove them!

Yeah, composting works the best, but my dog's shit doesn't seem to be killing plants. Let's modify cat foods for composting purposes.

 

If I were doing more harm than good, in certain places it could be justified. But lets keep this focused on the cats, and keep it civil

 

It was just a question for thought. Not mad. I'm just saying your definition of pest could, in theory, apply to humans as well.

 

After you suggest animal cruelty

 

If I found a guy running around my house, shitting in my yard, and then sleeping on the hood of my vehicle... well honestly I don't really know what I'd do

 

Set a threshold, at what point is he really causing a problem. Identify and monitor, take pictures and keep track of him, track his activities. Prevention, put a sign in your yard warning him and telling him to leave. Control, call the cops.

IPM bitches.

 

Fairly common out here in Cali

 

I’d call the cops the first time.

 

I'm impressed by the number of folks with decency and respect for life in here. The ones who suggest cruelly murdering innocent animals can go to hell. And yeah, I'm mad. Thanks for asking "bro."

 

What's cruel about taking down an animal with a gun? The only way it'd be cruel is if I didn't manage to kill it and it ran off with a bullet in it, only to die a few days later. Honestly I feel bad when I shoot a deer and it gets away, knowing it's gonna slowly die off in the woods.

 

I agree and don't know how the thread isn't locked with suggestions of illegal actions

 

Maybe you should read a few links that were posted and the fact that leaving anti freeze for any animal is considered cruelty to animals by law and you can be arrested for it

 

Check the quote below. Doesn't sound pleasant.

 

Keep eating factory farmed meat and then talk to me about how you're so against animal cruelty.

 

Get a rottweiler

 

We've spent thousands of years domesticating and breeding cats and dogs to coexist and help humans with a whole array of tasks that humans could never hope to accomplish alone. The next time a chicken detects cancer in a child, PM me about it.

That being said, the Chick Fil A I had for lunch was DELICIOUS.

 

i know is TN if strays are causing problems/property damage or you fill threatened or unsafe you can shoot them if they are on You’r property.

maybe you can’t do this in all states.

 

Shooting them is not poisining them, poisining cats is illegal in all 50 states

 

I agree with the above, but paw prints on your hood? Come on...
