Annoying Cats...
I don't have any pets where I live. I was unwilling to pay the $500 pet deposit when I moved into this house... even though I would like to have a pet to keep me company. I am a dog person not a cat person. If I had a pet-- it would be a dog. I don't like a pet who snubs you, scratches you, won't play or cuddle or come when you call them. My next door neighbor has cats. Totally annoying cats! 2 or 3 or more annoying cats! They use my back yard as their toilet and the brick wall between the house and the garage as their sleeping quarters. One of my favorite things to do is to open the garage door as these annoying cats are walking from their home to my backyard or wall and scare the hell out of them. They lickity-split right out of there afraid that I might kill them with the garage door. That would be better than running them over with the car, my neighbor might not like that.
As if the backyard toilet and wall sleeping weren't annoying enough these cats have now taken to having sex outside my bedroom window at night! Cat wailing and moaning and sex screaming! Please! I don't need to be reminded that annoying cats have more sex than a divorced 36 year old single woman. It's just not kind! Can't they find somewhere else to rendezvous? I think they have a vendetta against me because I'm not one of those people who leaves cat food out for strays. Their plan: torture and taunt me with cat sex. They'll probably have kittens-- multipy and there will be more annoying cats and more annoying cat sex. They want me to suffer I just know it. Sigh.

Damn those cats. You could leave out a bowl of Prestone for them to drink...
Seriously, while I wouldn't go out of my way to hurt cats, I'm a dog person too. I see a complete double standard as far as pet ownership goes - why is it that cats are allowed to roam free and do whatever the heck they please?
I do feel badly for you though. Can't say I'd want to wake up hearing cats "get their freak on". D'oh!
Oh Prestone... good idea! I have a friend who had a cat die because it drank anti-freeze in their garage.
I totally agree that there is a double standard for pet ownership-- dog owners are expected to leash, muzzle, and scoop up after their dogs or risk having animal control called out on them. But cats... cats roam free and do what ever annoying thing they want
Or, just buy the cheap stuff that's on sale.
Hmmm... You could rig up an electric fence charger outside your window...
Or, something I've used with some success in the past is a dog and cat repellant you sprinkle all over:

Or, you could buy a bb gun and shoot 'em in the butt with it. Just don't let the neighbors see ya.
Last but not least: Box 'em up and ship them to China. Cat fur is used in a number of garments there, from what I hear.
Anybody got a good recipe for crock pot cat they can share? :)
I'll check out that dog and cat repellant... might work, thanks.
ewwww! crock pot cat! ewwww!
If chingpea reads that she's going to kick your butt, 200Tercel. I'm a tattletale, tattle tale tattle tale!! arooo!!!
I think the cats come to my house and get their freak on after they've gotten nasty at Matilda kay's...it's nightly
Hey, I'm not insinuating any ethinic connections to my "crock pot cat" remark. I just think if you're going to kill something, you should at least try to make use of the meat...
When I worked in Delano, Kong's Kitchen was the local Chinese restaurant we would eat at. Except, sometimes the "chicken" tasted a little funny, and you'd get back to work and your stomach would be quesasy. Maybe they should have cooked Morris for a bit longer before serving...
