if its out in a reserve after dark..so actively hunting and it gets caught up in crossfire or trapped...its acceptable collateral damage yes.
the neighbours kids lost interest in the "pet" aspect about the time mum said they had to clean out the litter box and feed it themselves.
we have had a house cat most of my life..all been well fed but was eye opening just how far away from house they will go,I still recal shooting rabbit with .12ga a good 6-700 yards away from house and got hell of a shock when Ginger,our persian cross took off from nearby thistle patch...he was of course waiting on back lawn for me to deliver his rabbit when I returned to house.
