80MooCowAcres@AOL.com - 12 Jul 2005 08:34 GMT I live on farm. damn cats keep dropping kittens in my barn. I dont even know if they are the cats that lived here or other cats, but I dont want all these kitttens sh.tting in my hay. Someone said to just flush em down the toilet. That sound like a good solution to problem but I worry that toilet might get clogged. Has anyone ever done this? Did your toilet get clogged? Otherwise I suppose I can stick them in plastic bag and drive truck over the bag, or shoot em, but thats a waste of good shells that I could use to put some possum or coon on the table.

I hope you're a troll, but if not, I wish there was a toilet big enough to flush you down. Maybe even better, there *are* plastic bags big enough to put you in and run over you with a truck!

A simple answer would be YES or NO as far as clogging the toilet. That is all I want to know. I dont give a damn about your tree-hugger attitude, or how the "poor little kitty" bullshit. These things are a pest, just like rats or flies, and I am trying to dispose of them as humanely as possible. I think the toilet method is about as humane as possible. Of course I could toss them in my garbage burning barell with a hot fire, or just stamp them to death with my boot. If I cant ask a simple question and get a simple answer, maybe I will burn them just to spite you f.cking tree-huggers. I suppose you would rather watch the movie Bambi rather than eat venison too. Maybe it's time you face the fact that there are REAL people in this world who dont live in a fantasy world, and we eat our meat from the animal, not buy it wrapped in plastic. We also protect our livestock from rodents, which includes kittens that spread disease by sh.tting on our cattle feed. Maybe it's time you city slickers grow up and face the fact that some animals were put on this earth for our food and others are simply a nusiance. I got nothing against cats, just as long as they stay away from my feed. (Unless of course you would rather eat diseased beef and other meats).

Why not simply put them to sleep with chloroform, or find someone who will take them away from your place?

ToolGRL - 13 Jul 2005 19:57 GMT Put a free kitten sign in front of your house or in the newspaper. Someone will come. If not, drop them off at another farm somewhere. Cats are not pests, they get rid of pests such as mice and other small rodents and birds.

Where do you get chloroform and how do you use it?
My neighbor told me he just chops their heads off with an axe, or else he hangs them by their tails from a rope on a tree and uses them for target practice. The hanging and shooting dont seem too humane, but the decapitation seems to be, but I dont want to get all clawed up doing it.. If I can get some of that chlorform stuff I might use that. No one will take them, there are free kitten signs all over the place. Nobody wants em, there are too many of em. Thats why most people flush em or some other way.

and away it goes.

In OE ( I'm looking at an old version so yours may differ slightly) highlight a message, pull down the Message menu. You should have several options. One is " Block Sender" that blocks the author of that message. The second is "Create Rule from Message" This allows you to enter words or phrases from the subject line. For example I delete the word "declaw" in the subject from the group.
Soapbox alert:
The hardest part of managing kill filters is not the trolls, although some do change their name frequently. The problem is the good posters who feel they must argue with trolls. Ignoring them, freezing them out, is the ONLY way to make them leave. Lack of attention will make most of them get bored and depart for more fertile groups.
Not only do the regular posters whose other articles we might want to read want to argue with trolls, they also frequently change the subject line. Instead of staying in one thread where we could kill by subject line, they constantly post new threads to continue their flames. Many times the only way to manage the noise is to killfile them completely, which is a shame.
Off soapbox now.

Rosyposey - 15 Jul 2005 13:58 GMT Thank you, specially Carola and BarB, I will do that. I know freezing them out is the best option, but I can understand why some feel compelled to respond. Trouble is theyare trying to reason with people who lack social reasoning, and seem to be, sadly for them, a bit mentally ill and dysfunctional.
