Over the weekend, Gary and I threw out 6 of the MALE cats.
The 2 older cats, both siamese marked, have disappeared.
I sure hope they didnt go past the property line and a COYOTE go them.
The younger siamese and 3 black & whites have been staying close to the yard/shop. 2 of them disappear during the daytime, but reappear after 5pm...guess they find a cool spot away from the shop, and when they know Gary is heading home they come back out.
I have been accused of Animal Abuse for these actions, but I cant see it as abuse. I have just gotten tired of the MALES Spraying and marking their territory.
Which would be worse, cages for the rest of their lives, or a chance to be free. As long as they stay close to the house they will be just fine.
They are no different than any other COUNTRY RAISED cat. They arent 10 months old yet, well Rockie is almost 2 and Peepers is about 17 months, the others are around 9 months.....but still, they are smart and good hunters. they catch mice in the house, so why not hunt them critters down outside.
Anyways, I am not throwing any females out, I sure dont want more cats running around outside. So I have 2 males inside, with 8 babies less than 5 weeks old and 2 more litters expected.
I HOPE I AM DONE AFTER THIS, NO MORE LITTERS>>>>>>PLEASE....LOL
