    Somebody should organise a side comp. In fact we could start a "Feral Unloved Cat Free NZ" non-profit society, apply for govt funding and hold regular comps all over with prizes for most tails, best tabby, heaviest kereru guzzler etc etc. R18 comp only, FAL required. Public weigh-ins.
    I know a lot but it seems less every day...

    …this whole saga will not end well….easier to carry on with buisness as usual with feral cats and keep it out of the news media…..say nothing but deal with it as you see best…..when it gets on International Telly….we’ve already lost the fight…

    IIRC Gareth Morgan had similar issues a while ago now

    Wonder what the cat lovers would say if councils introduced a registration fee. Use the monies collected for feral cat control.

    ….my mum is in a retirement home in Orewa…lovely place…full of old kiwis living out their remaining days….behind the Home,is a creek,stream catchment area….few weeks ago I wandered down there with mum to take her dog for a walk etc etc………only to observe 8-12 empty cans of tuna in specifically placed areas….

    Mum reckons half the ol biddies there are feeding the stray and Ferrell cats and she reckons the population has exploded(she hates cats)…..so the question begs……who do you actually shoot!!..(just kidding)

    The little fucking mongrels are everywhere,killing bird life etc etc…….try explain the issues to some lonely 80,s+ nana she shouldn’t be doing that….go on,…I dare ya!!!

    One less tabby - it was splattered by a truck on front of my gate, I guess I’ll have to make a nice hole for it’s final resting place.

    I wouldn't be explaining. I'd be thanking them for setting up bait stations and start trapping them using tuna.
    Lets see how long they keep feeding them then.

    If you're rural just put it on top of a fence post. The hawks will recycle it

    ran into a couple out at the lake a few years ago ugly as fucking sin the pair of em .first bastard had a live duckling in it mouth fairly screaming as mum frantically waddled behind the mongrel. . skinny bastard saw me&trusty escort and snarled dropping the wee fella! -wee duckling fucked off sharpish.the escort spoke a#"no3load at 15m dont fuck round.!
    coupla days later just on dark I struck a tabby hua who looked like hed hit as london bus with his face -he spat at me too -the escort spat back yep a few feet from him the partially eaten carcass of a duckling! henc e when i sta rt singing fuck a duck the feral cats know its about turn fuck off time cause like possums i wont hesitate if youre caught in the act!
    PS to feral cats possums stoats etc -due to high price of ammo all warning shots are now dispensed with.

    An now animal lovers overseas are moaning about it. Bloody woke idiots with nothing better to do than moan about stuff they don't have any ideas about.
    You'd think animal lovers would be for the endemic and native, but oh no, they can relate to a cat because it sits on ya lap I guess, but not birds, lizards, insects, native fish even.
    Guess that's why they put thier nose into it, because they can't see past the end it!

    And whas the bet none of them even understand what the word 'rural' means....they all will live in the cities and only see what they think they should see....Do ANY of them realise there were NO native mammals in NZ (except a bat) and all of the problems we have now were introduced by well meaning people.....What if we showed them all pictures of the dead birds, piles of feathers and said this is what happens when we DONT shoot the pests....

    The real complaint seems to be people jumping to the conclusion that children will be running around with firearms causing havoc.

    Totally emotive claptrap by people looking for something to be offended by.

    Cats have a place as pets. In the home, on someones property, but that's it. Let it wander off your property and its fair game. Just like a wandering dog: impound. Wandering cat, kinetically impound.

    Neighbours had a bleat recently: Apparently their well fed pet cat keeps mice in check around their section. I shot this one (they keep replacing them) at the back of my farm, 3 km from their place, in the middle of the night. No collar.

    They just don't get it.

    You can take the cat out of the city, but you cant take the wild out of a cat.
