Yea, that guy is full of shite. Stray dogs are a much bigger nuisance- and danger- than someone's domesticated cat who runs around outside. Somehow, in the 6 plus houses I've lived in my life, I've never encountered any problems with a neighbors cat, nor have any of my neighbors.


Exactly. Where the hell are these people living where domesticated cats are causing them these problems?

I have a feeling they are tremendously embellishing in an attempt to justify their callous behavior toward harmless animals and PETS of their neighbors.

Like I said earlier, I'm completely aware these people exist and it causes me trepidation about letting my cat go outside.

There was a string of cat killings in my dad's neighborhood many years back where over 20 cats went missing and many were found disemboweled and hanging from trees. It was pretty disturbing.

I am not saying stray dogs aren't an issue. I know for a fact my dog can be a bigger problem than a cat if it gets loose. I try my best as an owner to not let that happen. I consider dog owners that let their dogs run free just as bad as cat owners who do the same. You have a responsibility to that animal to keep it safe.

There are plenty of cat issues documented all over google.

I've had two neighbor's cats cause engine damage to my vehicles ($400-500). My neighbor acted like it was my fault his cat crawled into my engine bay and lost a limb or a life. He should have paid me for damages, but I didn't even bother to ask. Frick cats that are out of a house unsupervised.

I'll agree that it's more responsible to have an indoor cat than an outdoor cat. There are a lot of dangers outdoors for a pet.

Well your neighbor is an idiot and should have been legally required to compensate you for the damage. Again, this is an individual circumstance and your neighbor was a douche.

It wasn't worth having bad blood between someone that lived 30 feet away from my house. But yes, he is a douche.

frick anyone for killing a cat for sport. People, cops excluded, don't hunt dogs so why should they do that to cats?



I grew up killing cats and still do. In Nebraska the game and parks encouraged killing of any cat more than 200 yards from a residence. Freaking cats kill a ton of pheasants, ducks, quail, and other game birds year in and year out.

It seems as if Arkansas Fish and Game has been having difficulties with feral cats for quite some time. They have continued to run a feral cat management program for the last 3 years where cats are trapped and killed. LINK


By all means, hunters legally duck hunting on their own property who kill the feral cats that are predating the wildlife on their property should be prosecuted and locked up.






If you don't want your pets harmed then control them and keep them on your own property.

Hi, I had to replace 200 worth of window screens due the neighbors cats. I had to discard many vegetables from my garden due to neighbors cats shitting in garden. I had to continually wash and finally discard doormat due to neighbors stray male cat spraying.

Answer the questions, if you are going to let your cat roam free on other people's property, what is your reasoning for why it is fine to do this?


That's not how your first questions were phrased. They were false premises which warrant no response. And I don't willfully send my cat out to "roam" on others property and he usually didn't. Sometimes he walked on our neighbors' front yards though, certainly. And the reason I didn't presume much of an issue with this is because he was a harmless domesticated cat that only a psycho would have an issue with. I knew the neighbors and knew they had no issues. If they did, I would have tried to accommodate their concerns.

Why exactly does an animal stepping foot in your yard drive you mad and to trap and kill it? That's a much, much better question than why I would think it no big deal for a cat to every once in awhile step foot on a neighbor's lawn.

Again, I know not everyone is rational, level headed, or considerate though and take that into consideration.

How about if I came to you or one of your family member's homes and shot your dogs? What's the big deal?


feral cats =/= dogs

Let me pose this question. If the cats were outside cats and constantly on your property crapping mating etc. Would it be ok to shoot them? If I left my dogs outside and they roamed the neighborhood I couldn't get too mad if a neighbor shot them.

You are saying your cat stays in your yard? Doubtful

How? A cat can't be trained to stay in the yard. While most don't mind your cat is in their yard, I would bet that if they had a choice they would rather not have your cat in their yard.

If dogs are supposed to be kept on a leash why are cats allowed to roam free?

You have no idea what your cat is doing out there. You aren't supervising it. It's completely careless as an animal owner to do this for plenty of reasons. Some people have animal allergies, they don't want cats all over their stuff. It's an animal, it doesn't know that scratching the hell out of cars/houses/etc is bad. It could be tearing up people's gardens/flowers/yard work.

It is your responsibility to make sure it doesn't do that and you aren't living up to that bargain by just randomly releasing it. You have a complete lack of consideration for your animal and your neighbors, but lay the blame on us for wanting to get rid of an issue that you have created by just releasing it to do whatever the frick it wants...
