    Our cat is now a 100% outdoor cat. He just lays on the porch most of the time though. I have seen him running with some other cats like 5 blocks away at 3 am though, so I guess he roams at night.

    If someone "dispatched" him I wouldn't be sad.

    I have never seen feral cats chasing deer while I was hunting, but I have seen dogs with collars on doing exactly that. Cats running around I have no problems with. Like said by PT, they take care of a lot of rodents and if you live in the country, you know what rodent will do to vehicles and anywhere else they can make a nest.

    My cats kills everything in our backyard. Birds, mice, squirrels, etc. And he always brings them to this little hole in the backyard. It's like his little hole of death.

    At least it is not right outside the back door.

    I must have a light heart because the one and only time I killed a stray farm cat I immediately regretted my decision. Saw a white cat 3 times while in the stand last year - There is no way I could kill a cat if I saw one hunting.

    I can say that I am a cat person... Always have been.

    I’ve never understood why women love cats. Cats are independent, they don’t listen, they don’t come in when you call, they like to stay out all night, and when they’re home they like to be left alone and sleep. In other words, every quality that women hate in a man they love in a cat

    /not my joke...
