I noticed cats have been disappearing. We used to have a TON of cats. I was working on TNR-ing them all. I'm starting to suspect someone is poisoning them now. There is a cute little grey one who had an orange friend. The orange buddy disappeared, and now the grey one has been sleeping on the porch and pooping blood. Wtf do I do?
I had gotten maybe 13 TNRed out of the 20 or so on the street. Now there's literally zero outside. Is it just too hot and they're all hiding or is something more malicious going on?
lol someones putting out bowls of coolant cuz theyre sick of the feral cats shitting up their yard. you got anyone that raises birds?
Over 20% of coyote shit has cat remains in it. Hopefully your local yote population is fat and happy

I wouldn't even be mad if it was coyotes. I thought about trapping some and introducing them
Interesting, there is a coyote population on the outskirts of town, but they don't travel in the town till winter, or when lockdowns were a thing, they started to make some leeway into town
There's not a lot you can do besides talking to your neighbors about safer pest control techniques--and that's assuming that they're amenable to your suggestions and not poisoning the cats on purpose.
Take the grey one to the vet ASAP if you can catch it. As for the rest, your best bet would be to capture the kittens and tamer ones and take them to a rescue organization. The feral ones are probably a lot cause, but are some cat rescues that maintain enclosed colonies for feral cats so that they can be away from people without getting killed by cars/dogs/whatever.
One of his neighbors here. I’m glad the cats are dying. The food retards leave out for them also feeds rats. Rats also eat cat shit. More cats = ironically more rats.
My bait blocks will continue to be placed in open air.
You two should kiss. With tongue.
>some cat rescues that maintain enclosed colonies for feral cats
why?
Because it prevents them from preying on native wildlife or dying horribly on the streets and is generally seen as more humane than killing them.
Good, keep it locked up or dont get one, no you cannot have them roam around endlessly.
Sounds suHispanicious.
If I were you, I wouldn't eat at any new Asian restaurants that just opened nearby.

They're doing what they're supposed to do. Vermins must be eliminated and vermin poison works beautifully on them.
Probably rat poison. People toss those green peanut butter smelling baits all over the place, I used to toss them all over the garden to get chipmunks which used to wreak havoc until I got a dog. Once I saw a cat with an entire bait in its mouth and thought oh man, that guy's a goner. I felt bad because I know that cats are my allies in my war against chipmunks.
i hope there is

Why give a shit about ferals? What are they contributing, especially if they're hostile to people? Remove them from the environment/general public, one way or another. I swear people aren't this brain-damaged when it comes to taking feral dogs out of the environment (at least in countries with proper animal control).
>Why give a shit about ferals?
some of them are people's pets.
also just like with dog fuckers and animal abusers, it's not the animals we care about. We care about killing or jailing someone that would hurt animals because they'll hurt people too.
feral literally means not a pet
>feral literally means not a pet
no, it means a pet that's escaped.
not that it matters because you can't tell a pet from a feral animal anyways.
>im going to larp about murdering people who dispatch disease spreading vermin because they "hurt people"
classic catfag retard logic
Cats are pests, just let it happen
The poisoning is most likely a direct response to you TNRing them. Cats are pests. A lot of people think it, few people say it in public. They shit in gardens, claw up and piss on outdoor property, get into trash cans, attack/get attacked by other pets, spread disease, fuck around in traffic, etc.
It could also be a PETA-ish/Vegan effort because they see you as an animal abuser, taking the cats away from their current life style but still leaving them in a shitty situation that they, as domestic animals, are not well suited for. Indoor cats are the new thing as better education makes its rounds and people see keeping cats outdoors as a prolonged, indirect way of killing unwanted pets, so they might as well die sooner so they suffer less.
also cats die from secondary poisoning all the time due to people poisoning all the rats and mice they don't kill. the cat shit, occasional corpse, and food left out for them attracts more rodents than the cats themselves kill, creating a population explosion
>cat sees live rat/mouse
>"i may toy with it, or maybe run away because it's sacry"
>cat sees rat/mouse convulsing from poison
>DINNER!
you should take this as your hint to start putting these little fuzzy gays in rescues or building an ENCLOSED colony so they can be proper community pets instead of wild fucking vermin.
sometimes I wonder if you're mining the archives for bugguy posts or if you're just bugguy doing bugguy stuff.
ultimately I conclude you ARE bugguy, but that bugguy is a bot.
If you gave a shit about cats you'd listen to me. Build an enclosed colony or put them in rescues. TNR is stupid.
>here little kitty go get mauled by falcons before you turn 3! or maybe eat some antifreeze from a leaky radiator!
>wew at least i neutered him
>If you gave a shit about cats you'd listen to me.
what if I don't?
what if I'll blow your fucking head off for messing with my cat but don't care what you do to other cats?
how does this math change your behavior?
I join in and help you condemn random cats to death?
also let's assume you can't tell my cat, for which I will happily kill you, from other cats, which I don't care about.
and further that for every 10 stray cats you destroy, one will be a pet cat for which someone will kill you?
That's why we use poison and bait yotes into town.
people like OP are asking exactly that
I don't really care because you don't live around me and if you did, someone would likely get rid of you in a way that can't be detected. But that's exactly what OP is asking about.
I mean you gotta understand
>someone is poisoning stray cats in the neighborhood
oh that's cool I hate stray cats. I bet it's Ivan down the street
>someone poisoned my Muffy when she got out last night
Oh, it was probably Ivan down the street. Let's take him out drinking and beat him to death in a ditch
these are both you, Ivan.
>I have a suHispanicion that someone hurt Mittens
>Let's beat someone up with no evidence!
You won't make this leap of faith in your suHispanicion in real life, because, in the end, the cat isn't worth your freedom, and even if you do make the leap of faith, you won't get anyone else to make the leap and you won't actually fight on your own, because you're an internet toughguy.
ah, you've never been to murrica
you should visit!
I live there. Some single lady had her big ass intact male GSDs poisoned because she 1: let them bark during her 8-12 hour shifts 2: didnt give a fuck when one escaped and tried to fuck, and then start attacking a husky that was being walked by an 8 year old boy (husky nearly died and was afraid of dogs after that). She SWORE she would kill whoever did it, then the 8yo’s dad said “i did! put extra glass in too!” And laughed like he was just joking about it. and she just stood still and seethed. Nothing ever happened.
>Nothing ever happened.
yes, that's totally how it usually goes
but honestly it depends where you live.
in my town the least you could expect is to be chased out of town at gunpoint. It's possible you'll just disappear.
It depends. If some reddit fucker poisoned a dog for doing normal dog shit like eating feral cats and barking at him for getting up to the fence he’d be fucked with. If the owner/animal deserved it for menacing controlled pets and innocent people, well, someone had to do it, and the butthurt retard doesn’t do shit because they knew they were the reason people wanted their pet dead.
you assume a great deal of reason and logic goes into drunkenly murdering you for killing jimbob's pet cat
you assume wrong.
No one cares if some retard lets his cat get out and eat rat poison behind someone else fence. Seriously. Cat owners do it to themselves. Whine when meatballs go into your yard.
>No one cares
except the big burly guy that owns the cat
or the well armed dude that has a wife that lost a cat and now has to defend her honor
or the navy seal that knows where his daughter's pet cat is off to and will avenge it
you never really know who you're fucking with, and even if they're a pussy.... pussies in the US have guns and access to whiskey.
this is the gayest larp ive read in a while
not sure what you mean by larp. I'm not pretending to be anything but an american in a small town where if you shoot your neighbor's cat someone will probably kill you. And nobody will testify against them.
massively fake and gay
at best your neighbors will feign concern over your gay fur baby and then play batting practice and microwave for science at worse or drown at best her vermin kittens
sounds about right for your neighbors who probably hate you.
My neighbors get drunk with me 3 times a week, we date each other's cousins, and we all shoot together on weekends. We will fuck you up.
ooh im real scared of a bunch of incestbillies who will fall down trying to defend their feral vermin hoard
don't get me wrong, we shoot cats.
but we don't shoot pet cats or barn cats
you don't know the difference so you'll end up in a ditch with your throat cut.
will my fedora be ok?
might be trampled
but seriously, the problem with the sort of people that kill cats or dogs or whatever is they'll also kill people.
You like killing cats? Nobody wants you around. Literally nobody. And we might just kill you to get rid of you.
actually most people who practice pest control are perfectly normal
your ridiculous homicidal larp is much more concerning
you can't tell a pest from someone's family member so you wind up dead or chased out of town.
if your family member is being a pest on my property you obviously dont care that much about it and you will never know what actually happened to it
yes
again, there is very little logic or justice when your neighbors murder you in a drunken rage. Or when your body disappears after.
such a childish larp if you live in the first world..
maybe mexican narcos can disappear people
but some fat gay from upstate new york avenging his fersl cat is going to get busted for sure
>some fat gay from upstate new york avenging his fersl cat is going to get busted for sure
by whom?
if everyone in town wants you dead, who is going to bust anyone when you disappear?
see, nobody likes you so nobody cares.
Like a stray cat.
No, ppl like you will bitch on Wauf instead of killing or chasing someone
>I'm not pretending to be anything but an american in a small town where if you shoot your neighbor's cat someone will probably kill you
Parses to
>I'm pretending to be an american in a small town where if you shoot your neighbor's cat someone will probably kill you
Sounds like a recipe for a self defense case. Stay strapped bitch.
>Sounds like a recipe for a self defense case
yes, absolutely
you'd have to shoot and kill the person ambushing you for that to work in court though.
in real life you never see it coming because surely nobody is going to murder you behind the arby's you work at just for killing a cat. Nor would your body disappear completely if they did.
Lmao i can hear your fat jiggle from here
dude, fat incels with nothing to lose are by far the most likely people to murder you in the US
do you even crime stats?
Live there you dumb bitch. I’ve taken the corpse of a foal chasing pit bull to the new neighbors that bought 5 acres and the mother in law house from a retired farmwr and told them that they need to teach their other dog to not chase livestock.
You know what they did? Nothing
Of course, since it’s real life, and not some shitty cable TV drama, the conversation goes more like
George, can you come out and talk?
>Yeah Sam?
One of your dogs was chasing Jenny’s new filly. You gotta make sure that doesn’t happen again, I can’t have dogs chasing the horses, especially the foals.
>Wow, sorry, but how do you know it was my dog?
Bowser’s in the back of my truck.
>Really? I’m shocked he’s not jumping out, I can’t even crack a window for him in the car or he’ll try to escape.
Well, you’re not gonna have to worry about that any more…
than whatever you’re imagining.
It’s the law of the land and accepted knowledge that if your animals leave your property, you might not get them back, especially if they enter someone else’s property and cause damage. They don’t have to be chasing livestock either, it’s perfectly legal here for me to shoot your dog for chasing deer or your cat for shitting in the peppers.
I’ve killed one dog that wasn’t a farmyard euthanasia, and Bowser was it. Cats I don’t even bother keeping track of, and while I might consider a collarless cat trying to fight my rooster or chase chickens to be feral, that doesn’t mean that someone doesn’t think they own it, or that all of them I’ve shot have been collarless.
Holy shit lmao
The only "internet tough guy" here is you. Between the two of you, I prefer the john wick larper.
Yeah big guy? You take the concept of fighting someone who killed an animal personally offensive? Because you project onto the guy who hurts animals? Woah wow, you are strong and intimidating!
"I have over 300 confirmed cats killed by my hands..." you remind me of the navy seal copypasta lmao. Clearly some control-insecurity made manifest; the scariest thing is when people like you become cops and are just itching to shoot the first civilian that doesn't simon-says. Get a life you retarded boomer.
This tough guy is saying he would kill people for killing vermin. Thats like saying you’ll start shooting game wardens because a coyote trap got your free roaming dog. Pets belong on your property but no one elses. The rest of us have the freedom to leave rat poison and traps out behind our fence lines and shoot whatever is crawling in our garbage cans without a second thought, because we dont want animal shit on our stuff or rabies. Catfags are like that wolfdog owner who got salty that someone shot his roaming wolf boyfriend after it had killed an entire flock of chickens and was starting to menace other dogs and even people. Cats are just that but smaller.
theres also a big difference between “sorry they got out, my girlfriend is a dipshit who cant close gates, ill pay for the chickens. they are cheap food animals anyways” and an animal roaming habitually like the owner doesnt care or actually expects everyone to like it
and a difference between chickens or ducks, and an expensive ass horse/cow or equally beloved dog
and no difference between a landowner removing trespassers and their dog removing trespassers regardless of species (always justified-respect boundaries)
and a huge difference between “sorry your pet jumped my fence and got into rat poison” and a chinless pencil dicked toxobrain tossing poison into every yard he’s heard barking from
>noooo muh wife is above justice i will FUCKING KILL YOU! REEEEE -retard zoophile
Your internet tough guy persona isn't fooling anyone. Someone could kill your cat tomorrow and you'd just cry, not actually do anything about it.
Lol be careful guys you might just kill Keanu reeves' cat watch out
>let your cat outdoors to shit in the neighbor's yards and destroy gardens
>threaten to literally murder anyone who tries to put a stop to it
Cat people, everyone.
>Cat people, everyone.
don't get me wrong, I'll do the same if you hurt my dog. Or my neighbor's dog. Don't really care. I like my pets way more than my neighbors, especially if my neighbors are killing pets.
>random animals have a right to get in your yard with 0 consequences
>OR I WILL KILL YOU!
Most likely anon to not do shit
Also most likely anon to get killed if he tries to do shit
Back in reality it's more likely that your pet will die with 0 consequences for the farmer who was trying to keep his business afloat, not knowing how trustworthy or able to pay him you were.
I can see a fantasy scenario where a hunter shoots your dog for "ruining muh hunt" and you ventilate him and get away with it, at most.
read the thread, that's not what we were talking about.
if you want your neighbors to kill you, start poisoning random feral animals in your urban or suburban wasteland and watch what happens when you negligently kill a couple pets.
>Set out rat poison because you have rats, coons, foxes, yote etc
>Some retard doesn't keep track of their pet, jumps a fence or crawls through a shed window and eats poison
This happens all the time and people do not get murdered for it. The irresponsible pet owner cries about it but they don't go around killing people because no one was trying to kill their cat. It's a different story if the poison is on public property or there are no barriers to cross.
It also standard practice to shoot pretty much any animal that gets into your yard and threatens your animals/children.
In the end your animal is your responsibility. You sound like the kind of whiny gay that should shoot someone for running over your escaped dog on accident.
I'm not threatening you
I'm telling you if you kill enough people's pets you're bound to run into at least one person that's going to take you down.
that's all.
countless off-leash dogs have died because of DNR's efforts to trap and poison overpopulated coyotes... despite signs saying to keep dogs on leashes. countless outdoor cats too. pet cats and dogs get heemed in australia by people who are allowed to simply shoot any cat or dog they see that isn't on private property. farmers have free license to shoot or poison any cat or dog on their land and do not have to tell you about it. suburbanites can set out poison and if your outdoor cat eats it, it's not their problem. no one has ever been killed over it, especially not when they didnt exactly throw it onto your porch.
none of these people are murdered. ever. EVER. it has never happened. the pet owners can talk tough but they always know it was THEIR fault and they would be put away for life for taking a HUMAN life because they were too fucking stupid to keep a dumb animal safe.
>start poisoning random feral animals in your urban or suburban wasteland and watch what happens when you negligently kill a couple pets.
nothing happens, keep your vermin indoor and it won't get poisoned. it's not my fault that your vermin ate the poison i put out to get rid of the mice infestation from my barn.
if it's a dog, i'd do everything in my power to get it back to their owners or to a safe place. but if it's a cat shitting in my yard? it will get some lead into it's brain matter.
I wouldn't shoot a cat or dog on my property. I'd try to figure out who it belonged to and go have a friendly chat with them. And I do mean friendly - not in a passive aggressive way. Being friendly gets you much further in life than being a dickhead like the micropenis energy you're giving off in this thread.
if you actually want animals to stay off your property, this is a bad idea
for starters they wont care
and now no matter happens to their precious fluffles they will place the blame on you
>no matter happens to their precious fluffles they will place the blame on you
You're probably right because as was demonstrated in this thread, cat people can be giga retarded.
I'd still want to do everything in my power to resolve a 'unwanted pet in my yard' situation amicably though. I guess I'm too nice.
>cat people can be giga retarded.
not sure why you idiots think I'm a "cat person."
Like most people I have cats and dogs.
poison either one and I'll make sure you leave the neighborhood at the very least.
All I've done in this thread is say that I would try to resolve this hypothetical situation in an amicable and neighborly way and you keep tossing out vague threats. You have some kind of mental illness.
I'd try to resolve any disagreement in a friendly way and try to accommodate people almost to the point of being taken advantage of. Having good relations with neighbors is more important than 'being right'.
But if some micropenis shitbag actually put me in a self defense situation, I'm more than ready for you. I carry a handgun for my job and I train multiple times a week with firearms.
>if some micropenis shitbag actually put me in a self defense situation, I'm more than ready for you
if your neighbors decide to get rid of you you're not going to have a chance to respond. Even badasses have to sleep sometimes, and if enough people hate you, you won't last.
that said, you at least get some respect if you're the anon that said he killed a pet and then talked to the owner. Yeah, he'll probably wind up dead or harassed off his property, but at least he claimed it.
Are you trolling? Serious question. If you're not trolling, I hope you smarten the fuck up some day.
of course I'm not trolling
In most of the US you can't legally kill a stray animal on your property unless it's killing livestock, game, or people.
if you "accidentally" kill a lot of animals on your property there's a good chance you're going to piss off several of your neighbors and they will retaliate. Which is also illegal but happens every day anyways.
You're trolling. Poorly.
youre talking to an underage 3rd worlder whose view of america is based mostly from the simpsons
It makes sense now. He's angry that other people might reduce his Meow Meow Surprise w/ Fried Rice livestock pool.
No one, and i mean no one in the US has died for this. The nationwide consensus is that stray animals are vermin. You are the odd one who would murder human beings over a filthy pest.
>I'll make sure you leave the neighborhood at the very least.
the dude making these small dick threats likely looks like this. you shit your pants when you have to say hi to the pizza delivery dude and you acting badass over here lmao.
pro tip if you have cats youre a cat person and retarded
I mean they are mostly feral cats. Only 3 would ever let me pet them. One was the grey cat, so I might take him in. The others fucking hate people, so I don't think there was any hope for them in a home
TNR is great, they can pump out 20 kittens by the time they're 3. You fix the one, sure it gets eaten, but you don't have any more cats. I eradicated an entire colony by TNR because it actually works. They prevent other cats from moving in, the more feral ones died first and now I just have one chill outside cat still holding down the fort. If people actually fixed their pets overpopulation would be fine in one generation without having to kill all many.
fake and gay
>bugguy
he hasnt posted here for months brah
probably yotes, foxes, bobcats, dogs, whatever.
if humans kill them that's also not 'malicious.'
in the US at least it's perfectly legal to kill feral animals on your own property if they're causing damage. And "causing damage" can mean things like pooping or yowling.
