First off....my apologies to the cat lovers, I myself am an animal lover.

We have a feral cat problem in my area and this one bit the dust this morning.

She is/was much larger than the picture suggests, it was taken from about 50 yards away.

I have been documenting the cat issue so the S.P.C.A. can get involved with trapping the cats, fixing them and hopefully adopting them out.

Anyway, it's grass-cutting day here at the iGro Ranch and first thing this morning I let the dogs out as usual. Immediately I hear something is up so I look out the kitchen window and it's on like Donkey Kong.

By the time I can get back there (maybe a minute and a half) it's over.....I felt terrible too.

3 hunting/prey driven terrier types in there prime....the cat never had a chance. I'm suprised she didn't get away.

I can't see anything. Is there a picture?

If it's what I think it is, that sucks. I love cats and dogs, but the two are incompatible with each other sometimes.

Yeah...not this branch though, they are attached to a no-kill shelter....

I know they have caught at least 2 dozen, fixed them and some have been adopted out already. I spoke with the guy who runs the program and he even mentioned returning some of them to the area after having them fixed. They're great for mouse control, so I told him to do it. It just starts to get out of hand and they do pose serious health risks to me and my dogs, rabies is rampant at the moment here.

Shame

One thing that seems strange; how come the cat didn't escape? Was it injured prior to the dogs attacking it?

If my dogs run for a cat, the cat is usually out of there within seconds. It seems strange that a cat wouldn't run and jump that fence. They're usually very cautious and timid animals that know when to call it quits and skedaddle.

I think they caught her off-guard, one of my dogs has world-class speed and by the time the cat knew what was going on, she was surrounded....at least from my vantage point.....I did see her dart behind a shed and she didn't appear to be injured at that time.

Terrier types? Pit-bulls?

Yes, American Bull Terrier/American Bull Dog

We finally go by the pasture and she says "Look! puppies!" :laughing:

it's not the dog's fault, it's igro4me's fault. Dogs are like children - when you tell them "no" and slap them in the face they learn quite fast. Well, igro4me obviously didn't teach his dogs not to kill cats. Hate to think he may have trained the dogs to kills cats. Hate to think what else his dogs eat. Also hate to think that they're rolling around in wild animal guts and coming inside and laying in bed with you.

Are you whacked ?

Or still just butt-hurt?

Let me know which it is, that way I know if I should edgamucate you again or just ignore you.
