Angry Cats

Yeah I know bad night, d@mn kids throwing rocks and CATS. Is there any way to keep a cat off of your truck. Little b@stard won't eat my tunafish and antifreeze mixture. He seems to do it everytime I wash my truck.

I wonder if a paintball gun would do the trick.

I heard that a liberal sprinking of crushed red pepper, around the perimeter, was offensive to cats. Won't hurt 'em, but deter them.

The cat won't drink the AntiFreeze.

Time to give my little brother a pellet gun and 20 bucks.

Um....

I know your only joking about the pellit gun and anti freeze thing because that would be cruel/wrong and only weak ignorant people would hurt animals on purpose (thats only my opinion I am stating here)

Try Mothballs, cats avoid them like the black plague. I use them to keep my cat out of my gardens. Line your driveway with them, it work well.

There is also some stuff you can buy from most hardware stores to keep critters off your property...just ask the guy at the counter for help.

Nope

There is a difference between killing for food and purposely injuring an animal because they did something to upset ones thoughts on how things should be (truck not clean anymore, poop in the garden etc)

In fact hunters try for one shot kills to keep the animal from feeling pain and all the hunters I know feel like crap when something goes wrong with the kill.

Poisoning any anything (Animal, Human) is extremly painful and IMHO absolutely nothing/nobody should have to go through that. I know that if I ever came across anyone killing animals for fun (a la Jeffrey Dahmer) I would have a "talk" with them and inform the police.

Hey this is just my opinion......

As you mentioned, I was simply joking around. Geesh. The world must have a little humor left in it...

RockPick:

There's nothing wrong with a pellet gun actually it works quit well. To be honest if people who own cats can not keep them in doors WHERE THEY BELONG then oh well for the cat.

You will find some people with a real STUPID belief that cat's belong out doors because they are "wild"??? animals. Well if that is true then I say again nothing wrong with a pellet gun. I mean if a bear was messing around my truck I would pull out my 10 gage shootgun and shoot it

Animals are quit STUPID to begin with but from my experence they seem to respond well to PAIN (from a pellet gun) and remember that if they go in certain areas that they will once again experence this pain.

The pellet will not cause physical damage to the cat just mental, but that is a good thing since the cat will make a mental note of where it tends to experence this pain and do its best to stay away from where it may experence the pain again.

Oh, by the way I have found 1 good use for cats:

They make great SPEED BUMPS...

Here kitty, kitty, kitty...

As far as hunting I am not the one shot type. I unload the whole damn clip. I want to make sure its dead so it don't get up and attack me....

It's called SAFE hunting

I agree totally 01XLT. I was just responding to the comments made in an earlier post about animal cruelity and such.

If I wanted to be cruel, I'd give the kitty water and add tiny amounts of mercury and lead. That way it would be a slow, metals poisioning type of death. Nothing like a couple of accumulatory metals to make the liver, pancreas, and other digestive organs run at top speed.

Geesh.

I'm serious. Laughter keeps this world afloat. It's those that hold on to the plug that threaten it with sinking. That's why I said let go of the plug. Laugh a little.

moth ***** should work great. We use that and Cinane peper in the mountains so the Marments wont eat up the vehicle. If not, a nice water hose should do the trick.


I've done the painball thing though, the cat wouldn't stay off the rubber roof on the camper,
