Waldo depending on exactly where you live chooks may be considered stock and any animal that harasses stock might be legally put down.





(but is it pronounced ha-rass or har-ass? Sorry that millimetre thread has me all twisted up)

Strungout try White Pepper or Cajaun spice srpinkled liberaly on the garden etc

other than that planting Rose and Lemon Scented Geraniums we have found keeps them away as do Roses with heaps of thorns.

You could try stuffing them in backpacks and leaving them on the bus. That's probably what those girls were up to on that other thread. (Math time )

Thanks for the replies.Yes,the bullet (or slug gun) etc were my first thoughts but I might try the council /trap approach.

I also have 3 blue tounge lizards in the yard and I am concerned that this stinking cat is going to get hold of them.

G'Day Strungout,

I too have a BlueTongue family here.

Anothger way is to be Kind to the Felines.

Open a can of Tuna for them.
Give it to them 10-14 days later, after opening

cook some toadfish up in an old can and leave it out for the cats.

A 2 litre Coke bottle taped onto the barrel of a .22 makes a damn fine hushpuppy. Just make sure you use std velocity ammo.

Don't ask how I know

And add some bleach to it.

Cats that arent in thier owners yard should be killed. Filthy native animal killing garbage.

A mate of mine had a swimming pool and set up a walk the plank thing that pivoted in the middle. Put some cat food on the end, kitty walks the plank and drowns .

Thats brilliant, Ive started digging as I type....

To all the small minded people out there, I feel sorry for you that you find a cat so intimidating. I have two cats but I have also had univited neighbours cat troubles at my last house which I needed to sort out.

i found the best solution was just to turn the garden hose on them when they came around univited. It worked, they got the message that they werent wanted and there was no actual harm to the cat.

Nevermind the fact that someones family pet was still safe rather than taking stupid action that most have suggested.

Ask yourself how would you feel it someone treated your pet with cruelty if it strayed off your land.

I am not a fan of dogs, yet I would never harm one if It came onto my property.

If the cat or dog is a real problem I think the pound would definately be the best option if the owner was slack.

Oh by the way, cats can actually swim!!!

I've got all the cats in the neighbourhood scared, they venture into my place they run off quick smart, they know I don't like them or the fact that they use my place as a hunting ground and use my car and inside my shed as a marking ground - do that and there are consequences.

Looking forward to getting a dog.

Cats are really only dog food.

Trap is the best but I would not be telling the neighbour.

Had a bloke at work thought he would fix his cat problem by making cat disappear only to receive a flyer in the letter box from a 7 year old girl who lost her cat and she was offering her pocket money for reward.
I think he was more distraught than the 7 year old girl.

Good Luck
