Anyways, we have a number of bird feeders (sorry @rd95) outside of a large window in our kitchen. There are mornings when we will have deer, squirrels, hummingbirds, cardinals etc all out there at the same time. But now... at least once a week I see one of there damned cats out there stalking the animals (not the deer) and often walking away with a chipmunk in their mouths. Like our bird feeders are an all you can eat buffet. I now keep rocks near my front door and throw them at them. Yep, I'm that guy. Outdoor cats suck.Cats are an invasive species and should be managed as such.
I'm with ya here. We have relatively new neighbors across the street. They have three cats. All of them are "outdoor" cats, which means they never come inside. Why? Why would that be an appealing thing to own?
Fuck outdoor cats. We have like 20 in the alley behind our apartment. Our backyard CONSTANTLY smells like piss. Tried everything from putting up fences, spraying cat-repellant and throwing rocks at them. Useless. Some guy in the next street over started mixing cat food with rat poison and leaving it out. Read it in the local news. Not the right way to go at it, but I honestly can't blame him for feeling that way.
cat should not be outdoors/free roaming. it's bad for all parties involved: the cats, the local wildlife, and the community who has to deal with untamed feral colonies.
