So the cat is a cat, cos they all hate humans. And the one that you think is a cat is actually a dog. Have you been to specsavers recently?
Cats are like Teenagers, you only see them when they want feeding.
Me, dog person, brought up with them, now have a 2 yr old staffi cross. He doesn’t understand when my wife’s cats won’t play. That said, having had a neighbour’s cat strip a regular blackbird visitor to my garden of its feathers, all my previous staffis have had orders to see off wandering felines. Barney is much more tolerant....not totally though!!!
Don’t hate cats, I fact I love all animals.
I just think that if you are going to take on the responsibility of owning a pet, then be responsible. Don’t abrogate that responsibility to the animal, “well they are instinctively wild and like to be out at night”
You wouldn’t leave a cocker spaniel to wander around the streets at night, jumping on bonnets or crapping on lawns, in fact has anyone seen a cat owner pick up after their pet??
Often a local cat appears in my garden, crapping away and stalking birds by the feeder.
I’m thinking of handing it in at the FURTHEST police station!
Off soapbox and breathe..

Devils advocate here (not a bloody cat lover for sure, will explain why in a sec...) a cat is only recognised as 'feral' if it doesnt have a collar. So there you go, this cat in the pic looks like a feral beastie... meaning, you can take 'measures to protect property or live stock'. Which leads nicely to my reason for not liking cats........
I used to have chickens at me old gaff. They were Road Island Reds and a few Black Rocks. Roadies for constant large eggs and Blackies for hearty eggs and for eating (if you're interested.... ) anyways, here was this bloody cat stalking my chickens every morning when they were in the run. My chickens stopped laying regular eggs and sometimes damaged eggs while the cat was around because they were frightened by said cat. No collar seen and it was a large tom cat. I took 'measures' to get rid of the cat (fake cat things in the garden, a silent noise thingy, a can of spray stuff that the pet said would definately work......) all to no avail. After weeks of no regular eggs and the death of 2 of my Blackies, I took 'measures' to protect my chickens........
Bloody cats.
If the chips aren't visible down the sights of an air rifle I'm not sure they be all that effective.
We've got a dog, she's soft as sh1t but I just about managed to to teach her to chase cats from the back garden, front gravel is now covered in 1s and 2s instead! Grrrr
