+1 My girlfriend wouldn't think twice about shooting someone that hurt her cats. Think someone won't kill you over their pet? Think again. |

If you let it roam free out in the neighborhood, it's not "your" car anymore, and it is a hazard.
|
|
yes free roaming automobiles are quite a hazard |

Looks like the cat was just momentarily confused by the attacking mouse. Its no fun hunting down a suicidal mouse that won't run away.
It looks like the reading impaired missed that the cat was in the owners back yard. |

WHO GETS RABIES? Rabies is a deadly disease caused by a virus that can infect all warm-blooded animals including humans. This means it can infect you or your family. Raccoons, foxes, skunks, bats, woodchucks, cats, dogs, and cattle are most likely to get rabies. Rabbits, opossums, squirrels, hamsters, rats and mice seldom get rabies. Birds, reptiles and fish do not get rabies. that is odd behavior for a mouse, though |
|
I'd be worried about rabies. They are not normally that aggressive. Mice don't get them usually, BUT THEY CAN.
|
|
Yep. NOT a mouse, not by a long shot. Vole's are strange. Had one in my house once, it found it's way into the dog food dish. Both dogs = "WTF?" |
|
|
+ One million. All around here go on a one way trip to the great kitty litter box in the sky. Want to keep you cat? Keep it inside. All this free roam shit is starting to sound like liberal tree hugger talk. |
|

Yea I shoot 'em too - they roam in packs, chase deer, leave huge piles of shit in your yard, occasionally kill people even, and they'll kill your cat if you let it out - oh wait that's dogs.... You guys just hate cats - why are they a hazard? Did one kill your pet hammy when you were a kid? Maybe you pulled one's tail and got scratched? Stray cat's are one thing, but killing someone's pet because it ventures onto your turf shows you to be a(n) (insert your favorite derogartory adjective here) Merry Christmas!! ETA - I figured it out - they're hazards because you might get caught in the crossfire of all the heroes trying to play sniper with them. |

Sorta reminds me of my cats a few weeks ago. I came home from work one afternoon and fired up ARFCOM and about 5 minutes later a damn bird came flying at me out of nowhere. It must've been in the house most of the day because the little bastard shit all over our bathroom. Took me a good hour to realize my two cats did absolutely NOTHING to try and eat/kill the thing.....
|
|
What about wild trucks (ex. GMC Racoon) and SUVs (ex. Ford opossum) that were there before people. Are they hazards too? Come on. How the hell are they hazards? Did a cat shit in your pansies or something? |
|
|
it was hilarious when I watched a squirrel attack my beagle.
|
|
|
WOW! A Rodent Of Unusual Size. I didn't think they existed. |
|

Around my neighborhood they end up squashed under cars after running in traffic or in the mouth of dogs that are out being walked on leashes. My sister got cut up bad trying to get one out of her dog's mouth. Dog sniffed under a parked car, and suddenly there's teeth and claws flying everywhere. |
||
|
|
|
OK, I really HATE to get drug into this, but why is it ok for your dog to be sniffing under the car and not ok for the cat to defend himself? YOu know darn well your dog smelled the cat and that's why he was poking around... |
|||
|
Aw come on man. That's a cool pic. Don't make lewd comments and get this thread locked! |
||
|
The dog was on a leash as per the laws and customs of polite society, and dogs sniff things when they're outside. A friend of mine calls it "reading the newspaper." You don't know what the dog is sniffing until it's too late, he (she in this case actually) could be sniffing for anything. |

Some of you are fucking ridiculous with the roaming cat issue. Its a cat you fucking pussies calm down.
Jeeze, what a bunch of ass holes, probably the same dumb asses who would discharge a firearm to kill a cat in a neighborhood with zero disregard for what is behind the cat. Go find a better cause to bitch about. The guy didn't ask for you to shit on his thread. |
|
Hencforthe, that Vole shall be forever known as "Patton the Vole". Ole Blood and Guts indeed.
|

Dogs belong on leashes because there are stupid breeds out there that have been known to attack people with little or no provocation.
That's why dogs belong in yards as well. When was the last time you heard of a cat running off and attacking people without cause. Their impact on "nature" as far as killing song birds or whatever is a welcome effect in my book. Kill the rats, mice, birds and true nuisance animals. But if a cat is dumb enough to get close enough to a dog that it gets chewed up and spit out, it's the cat's own damn fault as it should be smart enough to know it's place. Any locality that is gonna sit around making laws about controlling cats to your property is likely the same kind of place that will attempt to control all other aspects of your life, such as banning guns or certain types of politically incorrect guns. |

My sister actually had a cat run up and fling itself at her dog while out walking it too. I don't care about the cat getting wrecked but my sister shouldn't have to wear kevlar gauntlets to keep from getting wounded trying to end the altercation. |
|

|
So is this a normal sized dog or one of the toy breeds??? Any normal dog would not have to have a human defend them from a house cat. |
||
|
Teach your cat to use a TASER. It's the only way to stop mice that are high on PCP!!!!!
|
|
You know..... Take that exact sentence and replace "cat" with "mouse", then replace "dog" with "cat". You've got the almost exact same situation as the person who started this thread. Just casual observation. |
|
|
|
Very close relative to the guinea pig. If I could afford to feed a couple, I'd see if I could get them as pets. |
||
|
Bad! Bad! Bad! Little boy, jsut wait until your mommy gets home and finds out you're playing Rambo on the internet again. |
|
|
have your cats even indoor only cats neutered and vacinnated for rabies, it's not that hard, just a trip to the vet
|
|
Actually it was a pit bull mix that had been abandoned in the park and she decided to bring home instead of letting it get sent to the gas chamber. (she worked for the parks dept. for a while and apparently people abandon dogs in the park all the time) When she got all bit and scratched up she was trying to save the cat more than anything. Both the dog and my sister were pretty badly slashed up and the cat had multiple puncture wounds and a broken leg. No matter what kind of dog it is you shouldn't be forced to dress wounds or visit the vet because someone else wouldn't keep their animal locked up. |
|||
|
Right, but I'm guessing that the mouse/vole isn't someone's pet that they let roam the neighborhood. |
||
|
Hey I agree with ya on the keeping pets under control. Cat attacking a pit mix......... would that be kinda like suicide by police???? |
|
|
|
|
|
Fixed your name for Ya |
|
|
Thought the same thing |
||
|
Wow... now that mouse has balls, or is rabid,, or sees your cat as a big PUSSY |
|
|
i'm going with the rabid theory.. hope your cat wasn't bitten :( |
