People who put house cats out can't possibly care about their pets any more than people who put their five year olds out to play on the freeway. Domesticated cats are not ferral, they have very few outdoor survival skills if any. Most folks who are annoyed by their neighbors pet cats will shoot them. .177 pellet guns make no noise and leave no identifying traces.. more cats die from gun shot than from any other cause. Anyone who puts a house cat out because they think they are harming a sentient creature by keeping it indoors is a pinhead with a lower IQ than any cat. And cats don't smell, not unless they are ill. Exuding no odor is just one way how nature made felines one of the best hunters on the planet, which is why they also bury their waste, the only animal that does. Naturally the lazy bastards that don't regularly clean the cat box are who smell, not the cat. Humans smell... and I'm positive if I ever visited your terlits I'd about die from the stench.

So now is a bit later than usual but I saw a mice and I have to get rid of it. The point. The instant they consume the mixture, they do realize something odd and just like us, we want something to flush it down, so they search, i normally set a container cause I am a nice rat killer. Yes you may put cheese and meat to attract them, It is just an additional treat. Oh, the smell, get prepared, its either you deal with the smell or you deal with leptustirosis. I choses smell. I allow my pup to search and then we keep a memorial.

I'd like to try this out on roof rats. I have one of these empty bromadiolone containers. The hole is supposed to be small enough to keep squirrels, etc., out.

Cylinder is 14-in long, 4-1/2-in OD with one 1-7/8-in dia hole in one end, cut offcenter, near the left side. It has two semicircular pieces of thin metal with a 1-7/8-in hold cut in each one that lines up with the main opening. They cylinders are laid on the side, with the opening at the left side. Sketch...

If you put something wet to the mix the cement will harden when dry and the rat won't eat it then. When the rats eat the dry mix then search for water the cement will get wet and hard and will kill the rat.

Bullshit, feral cats very rarely bother birds... why waste energy hunting critters that can fly off when rodents are far easier prey. It's house cats that people let out that go after birds... house cats are well fed so they hunt birds for entertinment. Barn cats don't hunt birds, barn cats hunt the rodents that are eating the livestock feed

Popeye, pull up yoose pants, and put yoose tallywhacker back in, and zip up!

Old age no longer factors into the death of cats?
