I was taking him for a walk, he was on a leash as usual.

my buisness is in a heavy industrial area, and we have 2 groups of hippie types that dont live here who have made it there mission to set up a welfare state and throw of the balance of nature by coming here 2 times a day to feed the ferrel cats. No kind of spayed or neutered action here just keep em breeding, needless to say, the neighborhood is over run w/ferrel cats..

now im no fan of cats in fact i think i hate them, well i know i do but that's a nother story.
the cat people have these plastic storage bins set on there side so the cats can eat in the shade.., which makes for a great place to use up all of your 9 lives ..

so my dog and I dont see "kitty fresh" chillen' in the shade until  it's too late..cat tries to make a move, dog reacts..clamp down, death shake..3, 2, 1 dead cat.

in reality it probably took a minute for the cat to give up the ghost, which was strange/ allmost sad to watch it struggle to save it's life. I think if it wasnt a cat i might have felt bad...

but I had to spend $80. at the vet for some anti-biotic shots, and my dog got some scratches on his cheek

Im not shur why im sharing this story..opening myself up for cat lover attacks, but besides that it was wild to see it happen , and hippie cat lovin people are crazy

sarge? got my 6

No, no I don't.

You refused to control your dog and it killed a cat for no reason.  Not that I care much for strays, but you shouldn't let the cat suffer like that.

A neighborhood tomcat (don't know that it belonged to anyone - didn't have a collar) climbed over the fence of our yard and was mauled by my 100 lb Malamute and 75lb German shepherd.

Wife and I pulled the dogs off as soon as we heard the ruckus and saw it was badly wounded, put it in the car and headed to the emergency vet clinic. They said it had massive internal injuries, was going into shock, might be able to save it, but could cost thousands. We felt bad, but had no choice but to let them euthanize. I know it had no business in our yard - but I still hate to see animals suffer unnecessarily.

Sometimes there is just nothing you can do. Our dogs are great around humans, kids and all, but small non-canine animals just seem to put them into instant predator mode. They have killed a possum and skunk that came into the yard as well as numerous rodents and birds.

All you can do is ensure the animals suffer as little as possible, control yours as much as possible. I respect those who hunt that follow this same belief. Kill, if you must, but minimize suffering. Sometimes these events are unavoidable.
I use pepper spray to minimize encounters with strays or unleashed pets when walking my dogs, who are almost always on a leash, this works quite well without permanent harm.

Why can't you just get rid of the cat food? I would hate to have a bunch f ferral cats roaming around the house or work.

Not that I advocate it, but if the problem is out of control it might be time to bait and poison.

Dog 1,..cat 0. That's life on planet Earth. The world keeps spining, & another cat allowed to run free suffers the price of freedom from human safety. I'll never shed a tear for a cat. If it were a dog that ran lose, that got run over, I'd feel the same way. Their animales in our world, & need to be tended to. The world doesn't suffer fools.

Domesticated animals that aren't watched over can expect a fools death.

I don't know how long ya been here, but the trick is to develope thick skin. It doesn't really matter what you say here, someone will take offense 99% of the time, & then those who back them will join in to help their buddy out.

Sometimes I think the reason so few people ever leave ARFcom is because they can't stand to leave their buddies behind, just like the Greek soilders.

You could be at the "bait" stations with your dog on a leash 4 times a day, & let your dog eat the food while they watch.

Take your dog back out and let him off the leash.  Make sure you have a video camera rolling.  Once you have enough videoes you could make THOU$AND$ selling them on the Internet.
