Mexican Standoff

[PharmHunter]

Well well...Looks like it's show and tell. I'm sitting here petting Jinxie Elizabeth as I see this thread. The only cat that looked feral was ccleroy's...PBiz your cats DO NOT look feral. I have never known anyone to shoot a cat, but I also have never come across a feral cat EVER. All cats in my neighborhood have rhinestone collars with ID tags. Now if one bullied Jinxie Elizabeth or harmed her I may need y'alls services.

M...Jinxie Elizabeth?

M...Jinxie Elizabeth?

Uhh...YES. It was Dad's cat I "adopted" from him...So technically I'm not "the cat lady"...but it is one HELL of a classy name J.E.'s birthday is the 24th just FYI...

[Moatsy]

Just asking, but does she always stay in your yard?

Any cat shooters in the greater 'burg area!!!!

Drop by the office and pick up some bidness cards. Just wing the cats, don't kill 'em, and then drop a card somewhere around the cat or stick it in it's collar.

I'll give you 1% off an anal gland experssion and half a sack of returned dog food for your help.

Wait is this a serious question...Hmmm...Anyway she stays outside 80% of the time. She comes in to eat. She never misses a meal (she's 22 lbs). She never goes far. She just goes under the dock and then "knocks" on my patio door when she wants food. She never roams around. If she did that I probably wouldn't let her out b/c she has no claws to defend herself.

(she's 22 lbs)

Not quite a Booner.

Go here, www.QCMA.com

There is some good info on supplemental feed programs and good herd management for ditch panthers there.

[Simple Man]

Is she starting to get a little "sway" in her back?

[Moatsy]

damn, that's a fat 'un. When the leg and paws are the same width, we call 'em pegs.

[Glenn]

According to QCMA, ditch panthers are scored by their skulls. No need to let 'em age like deer.

Once all the physis close and growth plates fuse their skulls are as big as they are going to get and are ready to harvest. Usually 18-24 months.

Now QCMA recommends taking out small headed ones no later than 24 months and letting your "booners" live through at least 2 breeding seasons.

Clearing this up and trying as much as possible not to be a dick..

- They are feral. Here is a wiki link for you that explains what a feral cat is... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feral_cat
- If you've never come across one, how do you know what one looks like?
- I live about 18 miles from a gated community and about 12 miles from the closest neighborhood..

[Moatsy]

what about the Mexican standoff?

[Highstrung]

what about the Mexican standoff?

I always heard they had to be at even standoff also. Also PBiz just had a penis reference that wasn't sexual, and he wasn't trying to use it or be it.

[PBiz]

I thought a Mexican Standoff was a stalemate..

Touche' highskrung.

[ccleroy]

You say you have never come across a feral cat......hell we figured that out when you told us you couldn't cook......

Dude . . . You have a rhinestone belt buckle. I can not take you seriously.

[Tigerbdog]

Cats, feral or not, are good for one thing - crab traps.

[SCLAND&TIMBER]

Kill em' all! I love a good ditch tiger hunt.

Walking around the jobsite with the camera and saw what was about to be a murder..

Needless to say, the cat wasn't available for questions after the picture was taken..

SWG- Are you purging that poor cat? You cut off that shitin things claws and feed it to death. I commend you on making it so fat it can't be a predator introduced into our wild population. I'm also fine with a pet that doesn't crap in my kids sandbox.


PBiz, You have to admit that was funny and just a simple observation.

[Shotunderit]

There's a black one that hangs around my Mom's house. I go over there tonight and the damn thing has had a litter. Time to thin the herd.
