Aussie Whip 4,159 Posted April 21, 2022 Report Share Posted April 21, 2022 I like all animals but feral cats should be destroyed whenever possible, they are bad over here killing native animals up to wallabies, native birds and reptiles. They get pretty big and the biggest ones are black for some reason. Plus I'm sick of people reporting them as panthers, they look nothing like them. They do have square jaws and huge teeth though. I had a staff/kelpie that was an expert feral cat killer until she ran into one of these big black ones that bit through her skull and escaped. 5 Quote Link to post

levigsp 938 Posted April 21, 2022 Report Share Posted April 21, 2022 (edited) I have bolted real wild cats with ferrets, they are terrified of them, yet will fight a dog. I used to kill wild cats and sell pelts for sporrans, I would not touch one now and it sickens me how rare they are. Edited April 21, 2022 by levigsp 6 Quote Link to post

But even if didn't feed the birds, that's only once a day in the morning, that's only 1/2 full. The rats would be around anyway as my neighbours got few sheep, alpacas, horses so there be food about. I've tried every thing, traps are no good as they don't go in them, there nervy, you can see that, the way there quick eat and scarper quick. I did kill few, couple years ago with my 177 air rifle, but you got get them relaxed, to get a head shot, I put few pics up before they were big rats, so wating my time before I even bother to try and shoot them. Poison be very dodgy with dogs about, Buck and little woody go in the garden. I did think maybe a cat, but being honest it have to be out there lot of the time to catch them, poss after dark. But with Big Buck he nightmare with cats, he killed few ferals when in the woods, foxes, cats, are in his mind fare game, so I have be real careful with him in the garden, even though he in a kennel/ run, if seen a cat, he jump a 7-8 ft fence to get at it even now at his age lol. I did read not all cats are good at killing rats, not sure if this is right? , I know they love to kill mice. 1 Quote Link to post
