Cat Forum / General Topics / November 2005Need shocking device for cats.
I live on a farm and have a dozen or so barn cats. I am trying to change the radiator and anti-freeze on my car and I know how dangerous anti-freese is for animals. I cant keep these damn cats away from the car. I started to drain the anti-fr and had to stop and pour it back in the radiator because the cats will not stay away. I even kicked a few of them and was throwing tools at them but they come right back. I cant do this in the garage because there is too much junk in there to pull the car all the way in and close the door. I guess I will have to do this at someone elses house because there is no way to do it with these cats around. The last time I had to do something like this, I tried catching all of them and locking them in a shed, but there are always a few that I dont find, and they always end up under the car. I have a cattle shocker, but I am afraid that would kill the cats, and besides I need something where I cant string a wire around the car that is electrically charged and no cat can enter. Does such a thing exist? Tom Better than that go to the local pet store and get a electronic animal repeller it emits a high frequency sound that is painful to animals makes them run away from it about $30 - $40 Personally kicking a cat is animal abuse and if you use that cattle prod on a animal you will kill the cat and you will be guilt of felony animal abuse.

Does such >a thing exist? Pet safe fence chargers exist), as most farmers already know (I have one, though I have never actually used it, and I'm not even a farmer). But my first thought is a temporary fence of unstretched chicken wire. My second thought is that is may be a troll.  SignatureT.E.D.

Borrow a dog, give him a muzzle so he can't drink the antifreeze, and tie him up near the car. When the cats approach and get barked at they certianly get a shock!

When my neighbors dog wanders over here, the cats are all hissing and hiding. Thanks for the idea. This may work.... As for the person that said I am abusing them by kicking them, would you rather I had left them drink the antifreeze? I really dont think a light kick with a canvas shoe is going to kill them, and I always aim to get the shoe under them which launches them about 8 feet away, rather than kick them in the head or something. They like to get under my feet when I carry hay bales too, and they often get stepped on because I cant see them when I have a bale in front of my body. Most of them learn after a few kicks and getting stepped on, but I do have one that just never learns... Tom Great another f@cking whacko and troll <plonk> No More Retail wrote: > Great another f@cking whacko and troll <plonk> huh ? The technique is to place your foot under the cat and heave... of course standing there and going "ARARARARARARARARARARRAR" usually works too. pat You know I hate to say it but he was draining anti freezer that mean he had a hose there to flush the radiator. A blast of water or being kicked eight feet away. What would a sane person choose of the two evils >Great another f@cking whacko and troll <plonk> Another trolling idiot using the name "No More Retail" gets added to my killfile. ***PLONK*** Talk about a troll. >I live on a farm and have a dozen or so barn cats.

So there you go! Save yourself the trouble and do this someplace else. Sounds like a simple and easy solution to me. <tomsmith@____no____.com> wrote in. > I even kicked a > few of them and was throwing tools at them but they come right back. You animal abusing hick...... I'd like to kick and throw tools at you, but if I did, you would not come back. ><tomsmith@____no____.com> wrote in. >> I even kicked a [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] >I'd like to kick and throw tools at you, but if I did, you would not come >back. * PLONK * >><tomsmith@____no____.com> wrote in. >>> I even kicked a [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > * PLONK * Since you kick cats and throw things at them, your name should be changed to PLONK. PLONK sounds stupid, so it fits you. |
