    It's only a cat FFS, the owner probably loves it dearly, swears it would never hurt anything and it never leaves their yard.

    Do the trap and pound thing first time and when it comes back again do something else.............

    I'm up to number 23 at my place with a humane trap and a small can of tuna zip tied into position, with the ring pull only opened enough to make it struggle to get a taste.
    After a trip to the pound, it will either be:
    1) Scanned for microchip, and the owner given a fine. This step could continue until the fines or annoyance outweigh the usefulness of the animal.
    2) Re-homed - ideally not near you.
    3) Legally and permanently disposed of.

    I don't own a gun, don't live in an area which would appreciate gunshots, and this is the easiest way to do it. In the peak of it, I was on the pound's frequent flyers list. Even got to the point of unloading my trap into their holding cell myself.

    I live in a rural area (35k from town) and my "Go To" for cats is an 80grn hollow point .243.
    .22 or a .17 are seriously "Undergunned" for dispatching large cats humainly and instantly.

    You've gotta be joking right!? Maybe you need to work on your aim, like I tell the wife if it's not in the head you may as well have missed

    Like the lizard or bird they've been toying with all afternoon?

    I'm a fan of responsible ownership, but it is very, very often lacking.

    As I said before..... trap and pound should be first option.
