They do not bury their turds unless its convenient which is becoming more than inconvenient when my kids step in it in our garden.

If they start itching uncontrollably (mostly on the feet but sometimes on their hands if they dig it up accidentially) and develop any sort of rash looking trails on the soles of their feet our palms of their hands that look like a white trail through a red rash, usually in large circles, they've got "cat worm". It is a parasite that burrows under the skin and tunnels and it itches like a b'stard and the only way to get rid of it is to freeze the area around it to keep it from traveling to a warm location and then to freeze the area directly over it for several minutes.

Sometimes you can use ice cubes for this but the first time I had it in my youth the doctor tortured me with canned C02 which he froze the area with. After that, the next time I used ice as the C02 hurt like a bitch and cost a lot for the doctor but the ice worked too.

The neighbor behind us had at least 2 dozen cats and we had trees and shrubs that lined the back yard we played in a lot and it became their #1 place to defecate so we trained our poodle mix to chase them and she was great at it, soon the cat problem went away.

Unfortunately I am not in a position to keep a dog at the moment but agree having one is one of the best ways of keeping stray cats out of the garden.

And sometimes when they get lucky, culling the numbers too..

They only do this to surprise you when you are digging in the garden.

My dog kills more than the average cat, and that's without putting a camera on him!

A silencer would be a good thing, methinks...

A look and body language of fcuk off comes to mind.

..never known a cat dissuade a yabba'd up Somchai from breaking into your house though.

Hmm Cat's collude with robbers. I knew they were the devils work.

I don't need a slobbering dumb dog for that either......

AH ah - so you have something else that colludes with robbers then. Interesting.

The cat is a very interesting creature.

The cat is relatively new to the domestication scene. The common house cat was domesticated only 10,000 years ago. Our modern day cat (Felis silvestris catus) descends from one of the five distinct wild cat subspecies which are the Sardinian wildcat, the European wildcat, the Central Asian wildcat, the sub-Saharan African wildcat, and the Chinese desert cat.

All domestic cats trace their genetic fingerprint from any one of these wild cat lines.

A list of the diseases that can affect you and your family are as follows:
1.Cat Scratch Fever
2.Ringworm
3.Toxoplasmosis
4.Campylobacter
5.Q Fever
6.Cryptosporidiosis
7.Tapeworms
8.Hookworms
9.Roundworms
10.Leptospirosis
11.Plague



Here pussy pussy.....

Like hell.


Recommendations more recently are that pregnant women and babies stay away from cats for the obvious above listed reasons. You don't have to get rid of your cat,........ just shoot it.
