From pest control, to medical testing, to security, to entertainment so I cannot see how they can be called useless.


Or did someone tell you they're useless so therefore they are, like the toyota v's Land Rover arguement

Prove to me how they're useless, and what a domestic cat has possibly done to you personally for you to come to this conclusion.

because their cats?

I don't understand how you could idolise Steve Irwin yet not what he preached to the world, you should know better

If you are missing your cat...............check under my tyres!

Yep - I have a disliking for cats as well. I reckon cats should never have been introduced as domestic pets!

I suppose I love our native wildlife too much to see those buggers running amuck. i liked Bendigo's idea of the cat curfew - any cats found prowling the streets after dark were rounded up and taken by the Council. I live in Sydney, so i don't know if this is still tthe go in Bendigo or not - not a bad start, though.

The webiste would probably be enjoyed more by people who do like cats - there wasn't photos of cats in turmoil.

my cats have their moments.
having said that, there are times i could very easily take the mower to them. mainly Rodney, our male one. he was desexed at 6 months but has still managed to learn how to spray. now as a house and cat-run bound cat, his favourite spraying targets are the kitchen curtains, my speaker boxes, any clothes in a hanging position that he can reach and the list goes on. then there's the female who uses the top of the leather lounge that i got from my parents estate when they died, to sharpen her friggin' claws.
if i got rid of them, it would mean divorce.
i much prefer my 3 rotty x's, but they wont eat the cats...bunch of pussies!

That's fair dinkum funny, barney.

I have a new respect for rottys...

Cats only do what they do, 'cause they know, they're not supposed to do it, attention seeking....

I had one like this; the occasional tennis ball in the right direction put paid to this behaviour. Psychologists call it extinction, ie: if you claw the lounge you will be hurt (by the tennis ball), therefore behaviour that results in personal pain will mean that the 'cat' should stop said behaviour.... amazing how quickly they learn.... (where's Pavlov?)

i'm planning some fine wire filaments to be threaded through the kitchen cutains, hooked up to a transformer, with a ground plate sitting on the benchtop. hooked up to a 9 volt battery, the tranny i have should produce about 90 volts which should give him a bit of a sting in his wizzer equivalent to a good static shock.
of course if that doesn't work, icould go to my megger which will bump up the delivery to 1000volts, and if that fails i'm gonna hook up an ignition coil, which will probably vapourise him.

Well I'm definately a cat person, unfortunately my cat died on Friday due to a heart attack. It had surgery on its eye in the afternoon which all went well but for some reason about 5 hours later her heart started playing up and the vet was unable to keep reviving her

Great cat about 16 years old, got her as a kitten - she could sit on the palm of your hand. She was a Chocolate Tortie Burmese

Used to meet us a we got home - would sit on the furnery near the driveway as we drove in

Not a dog person at all.

Neighbours cats make good hats i allways say an old bloke i use to know was allways thining the local population he told me his best in one nite was three he told me and then said that'l teach the f@#$%^s from ****n on my wheels and shed nd he drove a swb s3
