I'm sure some people would have the same wishes towards looters and trespassers.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

Sprinkle disinfectant round the garden. Cats of all sizes like to use fresh soil, sand or gravel for their toilet, so a nicely dug over flower bed attracts them. Understand an animal's psychology and you can use it against them. Anyone who shoots anything out of spite needs shooting. (DYSWIDT?)

Washing up bottles aren't what they used to be, what with all the fancy designs these days. At least for the Jubille Fairy released a classic bottle. My mum has been using one to deter a nuisance cat but sadly it is having little effect.

No-one ever said cats weren't stupid.

I was good last night. Caught her before she rolled off the bed. Nothing funnier than the cats 'I meant to do that' look

Can I just point out the irony of someone who seems to spend most of his life digging stuff up out of other people's property complaining about cats in people's gardens...

I probably need to tick another option on the poll, because we have a mouse in the house.
Once Jasmine sees it, it's remaining lifespan can be estimated as minutes.

Our cat is only good at killing flies in the house. She can burble away and I turn around to find her just sat at my feet with a faint buzzing coming from her mouth. She then tends to let it out to carry on with the torment. She has caught voles and birds but she brings them into the house. Mind you she doesn't kill them, just lets them go and waits for us monkey types to run around the house trying to catch the bloody thing. Some cats ain't stupid, they'll do anything for a laugh.

Dunno about the mainland, but over here if you run over a dog you have to report it to the police, but not a cat. Obviously you've to help both out, but why only report dogs?
