    Please do share what paradise you live in so we may flock to it for the remaining years. I should share the story how I got my property. I am on a road with no lines and only power on the poles. The previous owner was at the side of the road getting ready to walk into the property and decide where to have them build her house when she heard a gun shot. She drove straight to the real estate office and listed up the land. I got a call and it was sold in minutes. Now I add the the sounds of the lands.

    Sometimes you have to do these things. Like putting down the sick family pet its not a fun time but you know.

    Stop being blinded by your own ignorance.

    If you do have totake a feral cat out by whatever means, don't write about it in your memoirs!

    Our little town is just full up with feral and stray cats. There are so many that the animal control won't even pick them up anymore. Sucks 'cause they're decimating the native bird and lizard populations.

    Even though they won't take them, if animal control finds out you did something about the problem yourself, they're right there threatening animal cruelty charges...

    The cats are just being cats. It's the humans that turn them out in the first place that are the problem.

They would almost always catch the cat and pull it in half, then leave the remains where they lay. We had an old one-eyed tom who lived in the garage since both dogs were young, and he was the only one they never attacked. I saw them pull the same trick on a squirrel once, and they never ate the carcass - it was just killing for sport.
    Gang bangers behave the same way. I have given this a lot of thought and I'll just have to deal with the aftermath of killing the closer one f that happens. Cats don't have Glocks though.
