My CAT eats squirrels and leaves their legs scattered about the front yard..looks like squirrel pants!?
does your cat do this?
will my dog try and attack a new cat?
I have 1 dog he is a large 5 year old male bull-mastiff he is fixed, has all his shots he is well socialized with other dogs and he is very sweet to both people and dogs alike, even very small breed dogs.
However we live on a large property on the outskirts of a city and he is free to come and go through the doggy door and has developed a habit of hunting small mice, rats, squirrels etc the problem is my GF wants to get a kitten and I was wondering since they are extremely small not much bigger then a squirrel for example which side of my dog will likely take over? will he be friendly with it like he is to other dogs or will he look at it like prey and try to hunt it? and if it’s the latter what can we do to make sure he and the cat get along or is that even possible?
In answer to a response I feel I may get, we have of course talked to our vet about him hunting squirrels and the like and she said he will come to no harm from it and the act of being able to hunt things is in fact beneficial to a dogs happiness and well being so please don’t lecture me in that regard, thanks.

What scope for air gun?
I have tried the gamo scopes, and, frankly, they are bullcrap. I got one came with my big cat 1200, and it wouldnt stay on target. I bought the gamo 22 scope, and it won’t move when I try to sight it in. I am convinced that the gamo scopes are worthless. So, I need a new airgun scope. I squirrel hunt & pest control with them, so I’m thinking a 4 x 32. Anyone know of any non-crap airgun scopes that won’t break the bank?
Help with a stray cat?
There is a stray cat in my neighborhood. We don’t know the gender, age or breed. s/he has medium/long black and white fur and yellow eyes.
I’ve done some breed research and I have compared her to different breeds and believe she is one of, or a mix of the following breeds:
Ragamuffin
Ragdoll
Main Coon –very likely
Siberian- very likely
Turkish Angora
Turkish Van
s/he is very pretty. We see her hunting and carrying dead birds and squirrels all of the time, but we think she may belong to a neighbor.
I want to get this cat to trust me, and that way when we find out if she belongs to somone or not, if she doesn’t she can get adopted!
I brought a slice of turkey outside to where she was, and when standing like six feet away tossed it near her. she looked at me, but soon went up to go sniff it. I snapped some pictures with the flash, that I thnk frightened her. She sniffed the turkey, then walked back to where she was sitting.
She meowed occasionally, we werre about ten feet apart, but she showed no want to run.
Actual Question:
I read something that said feral cats wont eat in front of you.
is this true?
Do you think s/he is feral?
How can I gain her/his trust if she wont eat the food I give her?
Also, if she is an unspayed she-cat, is there a kitten season?
Would she be pregnant now, or would it be most likely that she wouldn’t be?
because if she is pregnant and a stray, we have to get her off the streets now, and spay her!
I wish very much that I could adopt her, but u unfortunately I have a cat of my own. A fourteen year old male persian mix, who is sweet to humans, but quite cat aggressive.
If my parents said I could, I would work with the two cats, but I don’t think that they would agree.

I have outdoor cats (they come in, too) and my neighbor hates them.?
She keeps pie tins in her front yard with food scraps in them for “feeding the birds and squirrels”. (also rats, possums, raccoons, saber tooth tigers, and grizzly bears). So my cats go down to her yard to kill the vermin. She complained but wouldn’t tell me who she was. Then she called Animal Police and told them I was neglecting my cat. So he came to inspect and I showed him the food, water, blah, blah blah. He was happy and left. The following week she called and said that my cat had bitten her. They came and got my cat!!! I hate this woman. Nobody seems to care that she has garbage in her front yard (NOT bird feeders! GARBAGE). What can I do?

What can I do to get rid of squirrels?
The squirrels have eaten through my spare car and now my porches roof that isn’t attached to my house but I can spend about $50-$70 to buy a gun with a scope prefferably or some kind of small animal that will eat them all that I don’t need to feed and it can’t be a cat or dog but they have now destroyed my stuff and I’m pissed!!! Now it’s personal! I will not hire a pest control person so don’t suggest it! And no stupid comments!!!
