should cats be shot for killing birds ???

[Blackbird.]

That's cruelty and why don't you shoot yourself with one once and awhile?

 

[Joey D]

I've been shot by airsoft guns thousands of times, they just sting a tad. And what you rather me do, take my 30-06 to em? Or how about my .357 revolver? Or even more cruel frozen paintballs?

An airsoft gun just wakes the cat up, it doesn't even hurt em that much no discolor their fur. I'm not going to have cats crawling on my truck scratching it to hell and getting dirty paw prints over it.

 

[Blackbird.]

Or you could just go up to it and shoo it away.

 

[Joey D]

Well don't you think I tried that, they kept coming back. And so what if a few stray cats get shot up by some airsoft pellets. Like I said at least it's not a hollow point right above their front leg now is it?

 

[Blackbird.]

You could call animal control so they can take it to a shelter to be given away to a caring family. Unless it's a neighbor's cat?

 

[Joey D]

Hahaha animal control, all they do is pick up animals and kill them off. And even if I did call them the Michigan Animal Control sucks! It would take them weeks to come out and try to find the cats and then they would do a half hearted job of looking. Animal control people are worthless in my opinion.

 

[Blackbird.]

It's better then shooting them. Airsoft gun or not.

 

[Joey D]

Well since this arguement is about as pointless as a broken pencil I'm going to stop. Not to mention for some reason you think it's against my right as a car owner to defend my property from damage by non lethal force. Maybe I should just pop the cats off with a deer slug from my 12 gauge, but that would leave a mess on my clear coat.

 

[Delirious]

i freakin hate cats, shoot em for all i care, just try not to make a mess of it if you shoot one in my yard

 

[Solid Lifters]

Best bet is a .410 shotgun with # 4 shot . BTW has anyone ever skined a cat ? do they make good pelts ?

598a. (a) Every person is guilty of a misdemeanor who kills any dog
or cat with the sole intent of selling or giving away the pelt of
such animal.
(b) Every person is guilty of a misdemeanor who possesses, imports
into this state, sells, buys, gives away or accepts any pelt of a
dog or cat with the sole intent of selling or giving away the pelt of
the dog or cat, or who possesses, imports into this state, sells,
buys, gives away, or accepts any dog or cat, with the sole intent of
killing or having killed such dog or cat for the purpose of selling
or giving away the pelt of such animal.

California has some laws you need to follow. But, a .223 Remington loaded with Varmint bullets is best choice to kill cats. I use a .25-06 myself. Good for a "one shot, one kill." A .410 shotgun with #4 buckshot works well too, I imagine, but I've never used it.

You can buy cat pelts on eBay. Or, at least you once could... http://search.ebay.com/cat-pelts_W0QQsojsZ1QQfromZR40

I agree competely.

LMAO, That doesnt work, they could careless about some shooing them, they just return when your not around.

 

[Blackbird.]

Fine go ahead and kill them or harm them, it's not my fault you have a cold heart.

 

[Jay]

A quick airsoft pellet will teach them a quick and valuable lesson, it doesnt harm them any more than a quick sting.


BTW like I said before I dont like killing things.

I thought Wisconsin was thinking of making them varmints ? Its a waste to just shoot them and let them rot. If the pelts were good for something it would be nice ..I dont think I could eat a cat..although dog meat is decent , cat just doesnt sound too appetizing.

* what if the sole intent is to stop them from breakin your balls ..is it legal then ?

You know, I sometimes just read through interesting threads and well somehow I always focus several people's posts, you know those you see very often or you talked with etc; and I admit XVII is one of them; why? he has a quite rare point of view, with a strong belief in god and the bible, in a by far more extreme way, at least it seems so to me, than the average beliefer; And since he gives such extreme statements I get really confused every now and then, with statements like this one : That is about the third or fourth example ( other one is, how you like the mods ban people and make them look like idiots ) of a behavior of a person, that is not what I call a hardcore beliefer in god ! You know there is such a huge gap between your bible quotes, middle age style beliefs and your behavior ( as you describe it) : You like to kill god's creation ( cats, birds for cheap gas) you laugh at the "inferiority" of the banned people; I mean you kind of slap other real beliefers in the face with " My real home is heaven" etc and those statements; that sounds like flaming, sorry that is ( believe it or not) no personal attack, I just don't get it : Are you as inconsequent as it seems, or is your belief fake or what ?
Please explain if you can and want.
Thanks

So, it's kind of akin to saying "I wouldn't shoot over a cat's head if it were attacking my pet Gular. I'd teleport it away with a Goa'uld ring device buried in my lawn."

You haven't actually GOT a Goa'uld ring device buried in your lawn. Or a lasso. Or a long pole with a net on it. Or even a dead hedgehog impaled on a garden cane. So you'd scare off a cat attacking your pet Gular... how?

(assuming you have a pet Gular, which you probably don't).

I don't have a gun either, go figure. But I'm sure you'd have a shovel, or a rake or even a trowel in your garden to use as a weapon. Unless that is you have a tidy-garden compulsion.

If you want to keep cats out of your garden, go pee in a bottle and eposit it at strategic points around your garden. There's an entire internet group that does it, they claim it keeps foxes away aswell.

[EDIT] I can't get your colour right...

 

[G-T-4-Fan]

NOW I'M THE BIGGEST CAT FANATIC We have 4 cats, PET cats, who are clean (!!), they don't kill birds cause they're affraid of them except for one young cat we have, experience will come And if hunters kill cats, could we shoot hunters? That's about the same stupid question + the fact that cats can't do anything about it (except learning to be scared of them) and hunters too.

if there was a question: "if hunters kill animals, could we kill hunters too?" I would consider it, not killing the hunters myself, but I can imagine someone to get pissed in such a way, that they'll begin shooting themselves

 

[PS]

i freakin hate cats, shoot em for all i care, just try not to make a mess of it if you shoot one in my yard

So much for live and let live. And I thought Christ was Holy...guess not.

 

[Blackbird.]

^Same thoughts.

 

[PS]

You know, I sometimes just read through interesting threads and well somehow I always focus several people's posts, you know those you see very often or you talked with etc; and I admit XVII is one of them;

why? he has a quite rare point of view, with a strong belief in god and the bible, in a by far more extreme way, at least it seems so to me, than the average beliefer;

He sure does.

And since he gives such extreme statements I get really confused every now and then, with statements like this one : That is about the third or fourth example

( other one is, how you like the mods ban people and make them look like idiots )

Nate/XVII takes pleasure in cruelty or other peoples misfortune; so do Satanists.

You like to kill god's creation ( cats, birds for cheap gas) you laugh at the "inferiority" of the banned people;

I've noticed that as well, another trait of Satanism.

I mean you kind of slap other real beliefers in the face with " My real home is heaven" etc and those statements; that sounds like flaming,

And pure hypocrisy, but that's what the church has always been about anyway.

Are you as inconsequent as it seems, or is your belief fake or what ?
Please explain if you can and want.
Thanks

I'd like to know as well.

should cats be shot for killing birds ???

No.

Care to expand on that a bit further jreay21?

Here in the Opinions Forum it's usually best to expand a bit further on your opinion than just making a two letter post.
A post that contains one word and a smilie resembles spam more than anything else.

Oh, sorry - i thought this was in the rumble strip!

So.

Cat's should not be shot,
1) becuase it's instinctive - they can't help their instincts kicking in occasionally
2) If a cat is shot for killing a bird, then we should each have 3 atomic bombs dropped upon each of us for eating HOW MUCH MEAT every year. (except vegitarians).
3) Cats are friendly, affectionate, animals, and should be given the same respect as any other animal

I think that's sufficient

Bet it doesn't keep the flies away though

it's not like cats have souls...

 

[Ten]

it's not like cats have souls...

You can't be serious...

This is the logic that runs our glorious country, people! Take heed, for we are headed for a new age! The Dark Age!

...oh wait...

 

[Joey D]

it's not like cats have souls...

According to religion everything has a soul since it was created by God. I think however nothing really has a soul because there isn't this great ever seeing God in the universe. You are just like every religion under the sun...hyprocritical.

Plus doesn't God teach to love all his creatures? A cat is one of God's creatures in your eyes is it not?

I may shoot at a cat with an airsoft pellet but I would never kill one.

 

[Blackbird.]

Thank you, someone agrees with me.

 

[Solid Lifters]

According to religion everything has a soul since it was created by God.

So, what I'm doing is sending a bunch of kitty souls to heaven? That doesn't sound too bad.

 

[Joey D]

Well I guess, either that or their going through reincarnation, or they just die and that's that.
