[QUOTE="Vraille Darkfang, post: 2659975, member: 16989"] So I just wait around for Karma to do my work for me? I'm not just going out and killing her cat & hiding the body. I'm having an issue with her cat. Its harming my property, destroying one of my hobbies & making a general nuisance of itself. I did the RIGHT thing. I went to the woman & asked how we could come to a solution about her cat. She basically told me "It's a cat. It does what a cat does. I can't be responsible for what my cat does." Which is false. If the cat gets rabies & attacks a kid down the street, the cops charge more than the cat with a crime. I've tried the nice thing. She basically told me "I'm not going to help you deal with my cat." The other half to that is "You'll have to deal with it yourself." So I am. Animal Control is the correct step. I might try the tricks others have posted, but that's not the 'correct' step. The correct step is to inform the proper authorties about the cat. Cats have to have a registration tag in our town, and there is a reason for it (unwanted strays are jsut another form of vermin). The cat needs to have its shots up to date, it needs to be spayed/nuetered unless you PLAN to breed it (this cat's a mutt), for the general welfare of the entiere community, the cat needs to have all these shots/vacinations. To allow it to run around, until something bad happens to it/others; well that could just be my 'Bad Karma' from something else I did, couldn't it? Sure, I can wait for Karma to solve my problems for me. I prefer to work to solve my problems for myself. (I'm not trying to do bad things to her cat, I'm just trying to enjoy my hobby. The cat's owner doesn't care about me, & despite everything, I DO care about her cat, which is why it isn't dead or in the hands of Animal Control yet). I won't just sit back & ignore this. I prefer Fate to Karma. There is no Karma here, there is Fate, which is what you make of It. PS. My wife is allergic to anything with fur, Chinchillas excepted (and we don't want a 300 dollar, very soft rat). [/QUOTE]
