If this cat has ever been mistreated bu humans, she will never trust you or anybody. Sad, but true.

Yeah, she told me about you. You have something that looks like a pecker, but it's smaller....

But let me tell you about my '67 Mustang that I'm restoring (just to keep it on topic)

Well I don't know how to catch a cat. Not even sure why I would want too. I do however know how to make one go Whooof!

Well I got a "havahart" live trap to catch a racoon that killed my chickens. First night I got the neighbours cat! ( baited with bolgana) So that works.

Next night I got the racoon......I'll end the story here. StuK

I'll remeber that if I ever see you running down the street on fire......

A person's opinion of a certain kind of animal often says alot about their character...

Same goes for cats coming on one's property looking for trouble. I for one am growing tired of this cat coming in our yard at night and using it for a toilet. Upsetting my dogs who are inside the house. Next time I'm at animal control, I'll probably rent a trap and hope I can catch it. County ordinance states no loose dogs or cats.

A more humane way is a supersoaker. I got it yesterday as it was on the fence hiding behind the orange tree. Talk about a wet pussy. :-) Maybe it'll get the message and stay our of our yard.

Cats love raw steak. I had a cat that liked me enough, but would get scared lots of times even from me just because she had such a hard life as a kitten before I got her. Once I started feeding her steak, she soon became much more trusting. It might take a couple weeks, but I bet she'll get closer and closer to you every day until you can grab her.

Got to agree with Backyard Mechanic, too many people these day have an idealized romantic view of animals and in some cases harmful or dangerous preconceptions (for animals AND humans). I'm not talking about you personally of course I don't know you.

I mean it's not surprising, the closest many people get to wildlife these days is often the zoo or their own pets.

Live in the country for a while with pets and a few things become clear. The need for a firearm, and the need to use it occasionally. The first time you see a cute little Raccoon brazenly invade your property and actively attack your pets and even you, it ceases to be a cute raccoon, and becomes a serious threat that needs to be killed as soon as possible. The same holds true for feral dogs. Personally I wont shoot feral cats they generally go away quickly enough if you scare them off and don't leave food outside.

Since you're a full step below "troglodyte", I fail to see where you have any room to talk.
