Out old 17 calico female got out tonight and got attacked by another cat.
We interrupted before the feral cat could kill her.
She is small, deaf and bit senile I think.  It 2am and there is not a vet
with emergeny in our area.

I grabbed her and brought her in the house and inspected.  There were clumps
of her fir on the ground at the fight seen.  Look like she had a puncture
wound in her neck but it had stopped bleeding.  She would hiss and growl if
we came near her.  When she tries to walk, she has much trouble on her back
legs although there is no outwordly sign of injury thereImmediately after
the fight.  After 45 minutes she was not frightened of us any more and we
could touch her.  She wobbled over to a favorite spot she feels safe
in...its dark and confined.  We are just letting her rest now and checking
every 1/2 hour.  She seems to be alert, but just laying with her eyes open.
Everyonce in a while will do a pitiful meow and when I appear she stops and
settle back down.   Im not sure if she is waiting to die or in some sort of
cat shock.   She wont eat when offered cat snacks.

Any experience with this sort of cat shock?

PS.  how does one trap a feral cat?

Yes, though not due to a cat attack. Make sure to get her to the vet asap.

With a trap. There might be a trap and release program in your community
you could work with. Call the local Humane Society to inquire.

get a life you trolling geek.

the troll.

I read that somewhere.. that it's usually males that have been abused
somehow, that do weird things to animals.  So I figured it must be the same
for trolls.  Their just expressing their anger trolling instead of going out
and killin things.  Some psychologist wrote something like that.. did some
kind of study.

dinkmeister - 03 Apr 2004 06:14 GMT
perhaps, but theres no reason to categorize them with all teen males,
unless you have some sort of hatred towards the normal ones too..

just remember, trolls want attention, if anyone responds to their post,
it doesn't matter what the reply is, it fuels them to be more trollish.
the best thing to do is ignore them - they'll get bored and go away.

Big tough guy aren't you?  Why don't you pick on someone

Feral Cats were once pets or are the offspring of  pets, they come around
our homes looking for food. We created this problem, further cruelty is not
the cure. Feed feral or abandoned cats as they are victims, be kind, don't
abuse the hungry and neglected. Phone Animal Rescue Organizations in your
area, get involved, help the misfortunate animals in your community, don't
'pass the buck'. Normally feral cats will not attack unless threatened as
they are fearful and hide from contact. We are Bullies and Killers if we
participate in harming our animals. All animals are our wards to protect,
stand up and do something about the despicable ways homeless cats are
treated. Thanks, Maria at; mstencill@sympatico.ca

your right....instead of gutting and hanging upside down for slow bleed
out.....I will take the humane approach and blast them with some .00 shotgun
pellets.  It wont be instant, but better then what I originally had in mind.

Why would you have your own cat for so many years if you're a
'killer/torturer' as stated on your shocking response. Do you shoot people
too or just cats? You know, what goes around comes around - try kindness
instead. Maybe you're upset your cat is hurt and I can't blame you, hope
she's recovering. Hurting the feral cat and worse is a Crime. Why would you
do that?

Yeah good one moron.......................and if your cat came into my
garden and I decided it was endangering the wildlife that lives
there....then I would be quite within my rights to blow your cats head off?
NO!............................of course I wouldnt you f.cking retard!

How do you know the cat is Feral?
Could just be a large tom and could also be someone elses pet............

What happened to your cat is unfortunate but I would never kill a cat...you
are scum for even considering it.

I hope your cat recovers and you die a slow death!

sweeter...tonight....setting up a trap....115ac wire mesh pad.....and in the
center....nice new can of cat food.   We will be watching from 2nd story
window....and just in case have a high powered pellet gun.......hell Ill
probably nail it in up the a.s with a pellet to propel it into the death
mesh......should be fun....stay tuned!

LOL and his IP address is 68.228.72.34 (host name: ip68-228-72-
34.oc.oc.cox.net), from Irvine CA. Even better.

Zapping computers is illegal.  :)

I waited last night ....anxiously until 1am.....I borrowed by sons Night
Owl..night vision and spotted the bastard up the hill coming down the trail
to our property so I was properly prepared by the time he got in
range......he had great sense of smell.....I could tell from 50 ft away he
knew where in what general direction the open can of foot was.....he didn't
seem at all suspect of the wire mesh and the easy dinner that was laid out
for him........but I couldn't do it......I couldn't plug in the 115ac.....I
was to far away and I was afraid I would make noise he could hear though the
2nd story open window....the cat by this time was oblivious and must have
not eaten in a while as its bobbed up and down..gorging on the unsuspecting
feast.......fortunately....I was able to borrow by brother-in-laws 40/40
shotgun that day.....the gun was previously propped in position and it was a
silent and rapid movement to bring stock to shoulder and eye to aim.
Normally pitch black, I left the patio light on so when adjusted, my eyes
could see fine the target.  The cat now had engulfed most of the food and
was now licking the can, trying to catch up with it has he pushed it around
the wire mesh.........I calmed and slowed my heartbeat and between breaths I
timed the trigger pull between heartbeats to better my aim.  It was loud,
very loud for 1am in our quiet country neighborhood, fortunately, I had
previously spoken with all the neighbors who heartily agreed, after
suffering their own nuisances with the bastard,  with the bastards
eradication.

Blinded and surprised momentarily by flash and loudness of the blast, when
my eyes recovered, the cat was not on the wire mesh where I expected.  The
combination of the energy of the shotgun blast pellets and cast surge of
survival adrenalin allowed it to crawl some 10 ft away before it finally
collapsed.  Not dead, chest still heaving, visible even in the dim patio
light, but unable to move as its read quarters were a bloody pulp.  Not
having to be so careful this time, I aimed a leisure and launched the 2nd
40/40 shell and hit is mid course and whatever life was left shortly
dissipated.  Equally satisfying was scraping it up in a flat blade shovel
and dumping it in the garbage can.  Fortunately garbage pickup is today so
the putrid order of its decomposing body wont overwhelm our celebration
party this evening.

You know what quilterhusband-you have a stupid name-no wonder your wife?
quilts. Besides I saved the City of Irvine,CA,US in my favorites so that I
can continue investigating who you are and report you to the Police along
with your cat-killing statement. If you're bluffing-and your tail sounds
longwinded-maybe study writing eh? No wonder in Europe and Canada you pigs
down south give the US a bad name, because you're a sick bastard and what
you wish/do to innocent cats should befall you.

night vision scope is only $179 new, model 0CC3 and alot cheaper used.  Its
cheap but effective.  It should come in handy to keep other critters at bay
too.  I might have to buy a shotgun now that I experience how effective my
brother-in-laws was.

Good luck wth your pests

Thanks Andy for your response, good point. Hoping the guy will reform and
not kill, it's too late then. A life is gone and the blood will be on his
head. Life is sacred all life, it's not up to a sadist to decide who lives &
dies.

Karma baby!

That sort of thing gets you sent to prison here in the UK..........what if
his cat gets out again and wonders onto the pad and ends up fried?

What an arsehole...hope it rains, shorts your little killing device and
burns your house down you lame bastard!

Thankyou Cheryl for the IP address and of course you are right zapping
someone's  computer is illegal - but I didn't say I'd do it - but someone
else may decide to do so on hearing the absolutely illegal cat torture and
killing methods of this invasive freak who useless a nice pet site like this
as a platform for his hate propaganda. I'll be sure to relay his email add.
and I.P. address to the Police and A.O.L. and they can shut him down and
cart him off to jail where he belongs. But I do know of a good hacker site
that likes fresh email and I.P.'so. Did anyone here see 'Cat Movies' Posting
of 3/29/04 from Lea Newton also 'Cat Movies -- TROLL sick sick' of 3/29/04?
Take a look if you aren't sick from it. I will post response there too and
for sure the sick sick Trolls will be shut down. They are threatening
members ...

We had a great party this afternoon.  Brought our cat home from the
hospital.  While she is doing a 100% better then when we first brought her
in.  She is not doing real well.  But given her rate of improvement, we want
to give her a chance to get better yet and watch her for improvement
hopefully over the next few days.  It was a fun party, everyone enjoyed the
fact and style in which we dispatched the feral cat, especially the
neighbors who have been concerned with it for years.  My brother-in-law said
I could borrow his 40/40 anytime so I wont be buying a shotgun after all as
i would only use it for feral disposal so not worthy of the cost of
purchase.  I think we have a safe neighborhood now for all our cats, and the
tools to keep it safe for some time
