Cat Forum / General Topics / November 2003stray cat
My cat would like to go outside. This white cat with no tail, one green eye and one yellow eye, keeps attacking my cat. He is apparently a feral male and my cat is female, fixed. The dang white cat hides beneath my car to await my cat. She can fend him off. but he attacks from behind. My cat comes when called, I whistle for her. Her name, you could say, is a whistle. When my cat tries to get to my porch to come inside, the white cat attacks and they brawl. My cat now has an abscess on her side and a vet appointment to lance it. I have to chase the white cat. Honestly the white cat is a good looking cat but I want to get rid of it. I am to the point of contemplating murder. I called the animal control and they suggested a cage but have none available at present. Any ideas, short of antifreeze? I doubt that yard sprayer thing suggested in an earlier msg will spray beneath my car. gs You are despicable and you really shouldn't be allowed to have cats. Or are you just a sad troll?

Or > are you just a sad troll? Why? He already said he was looking for suggestions short of having to kill that cat. He is trying to protect HIS cat on HIS property from a mean feral cat that has no business being there at all. I don't see why it matters if he kills the feral cat himself or simply traps it and turns it over to Animal Control who will kill it instead. >My cat would like to go outside.

It's like if there were muggers and rapists prowling your neighborhood so instead of wasting their time catching them, the police simply told you to stay at home so you won't get mugged or raped. > My cat would like to go outside.

LT Call animal control back and ask them if they have a Have-A-Heart Trap, you could then keep your kitty in for a day, set the trap near your car and capture your stray, then transport it to a shelter, or have animal control do the same, the cat could have possible illnesses that your cat could catch from the fighting (FIV etc) these are serious. and I personally would get the cat caught and taken care of so it has a chance to find a home.

Trap the feral. You could just relocate him, or you could see if there's a feral rescue group in your area. Also, for a (relatively) small fee, you might be able to take him to your local humane society, have him checked out and fixed so he won't contribute to a local feral population. If you think one feral cat is dangerous to your cat, think of what a whole litter would be like! We are feeding a feral/stray who doesn't quite attack our Georgia, but he does make it clear that when his food dish is out, she shouldn't come near it. Otherwise, they get along okay. We're going to trap him before springtime because he needs to be neutered. We'll try to socialize him so he can be adopted, but at least he won't be adding to the feral cat problem in our neighborhood. Warren Signature----------------------------------------------------------- Great gifts for cat lovers at http://www.officiallycute.com Cute cat pictures, too! Thanks for the suggestions. What about capture and release in a wooded area. My cat insists on going out. She is a smart cat and knows I open the door to leave and she can scoot out. My cat tears at the blinds when she would like to go outside and learned this message to me long ago. I have always let her outside and stopping now would be difficult for the both of us. Why this feral cat wants to kill her .. I don't know. Certainly my cat is worth more to me than this feral killer cat. As far as not being allowed to own a cat all I can say is that all cats should be so lucky as to have me as an owner. So, being berated just wont work Victor Martinez. What is a sad troll (sic?) Never mind, maybe you do your defining by example, Victor. Well, I see this is not where I want to be. Thank you for the suggestions that were thoughtful. Victor, no need to reply with some self serving attempt to save face. I wont be checking this ng again. gs >My cat would like to go outside.
