The city of Blue Mountains in Australia is surrounded by a national park. There are special rules in the city and environs about outside cats preying on wildlife because wildlife in that area is particularly important to the local authority. Cats preying on wildlife can be legally trapped and placed in a shelter or returned to their owner.
However, residents of the area are reporting that 65 cats have gone missing. One woman found her cat strung up under the branch of a tree; basically hanged. Another woman found her cat strung up by a leg. The cat was alive but has a permanent limp. Many others wait for the return of their cat.
To all intents and purposes there is strong circumstantial evidence indicating that there are vigilantes roaming around the streets of Blue Mountains killing outside cats at will and doing it in an overt and sadistic way to send a message to cat owners. Despite this the local council has not received any complaints about missing cats and neither has the RSPCA. This is extraordinary because residents are talking amongst themselves about missing cats and talking to the press about it while those charged with enforcing the law haven’t heard about it.
There is obviously a massive disconnect between the citizens and the authorities. Either that or the council is being less than honest. I suspect that they do know about it and don’t mind if it continues. These are multiple crimes being ignored.
My reading of the story indicates that the city of Blue Mountains is a place where the greatest proportion of people who hate cats live. If that is true then it also contains the greatest proportion of cat owners who are neglectful and careless with their cats because they let them roam outside in full knowledge that there are vigilantes out there killing them. Then they complain about their missing cats. That’s equally extraordinary in my opinion.
I have dictated this from memory because the source of the story is The Daily Telegraph in Australia but I can’t access the page again without paying a subscription. Therefore I cannot return to the story for verification. However, as mentioned, the surprising aspect of it is the very large number of cats going missing, cat owners continuing to let their cats go outside and thirdly neither the police, the RSPCA, nor the local authority know anything about it. It’s anarchy.

There are some stone cold, animal hating subhumans in the world. Some people love cats; some love dogs. Some people love both. But normal people have feelings for all sentient beings no matter where their individual preference lies.
But it’s perfectly okay for you and all your other visitors to insult anyone and everyone. Is there no fathomless depth to your own hypocrisies? Apparently not. Your very existence is a complete and total insult to all of humanity and all life on earth. But you already know that, don’t you. It’s why this is the only contact you can ever have with any humans as infinitely worthless as yourself.
Proof of your inbred hypocrisies and ignorance:
What should the punishment be for a person who lets their dog kill your cat?
What should the punishment be for you letting your cat kill your neighbors rabbits or other pet animals?
Not that any of you will ever look in your own mirrors, but it’s worth a shot to show you just how despicable and two-faced you all are. And to this PRECISE extent is how everyone in the world now sees you hypocritical and useless cat-lickers. Then you wonder why people not only hate all cats, but anyone and everyone who owns cats. You have nobody to blame for that perfectly true assessment of you but YOURSELVES.
But it’s perfectly okay for you….
(deleted because it is insulting and rude. Damn you. Don’t insult visitors to PoC. You can’t keep your tongue civil can you? You are truly an unpleasant person. (Admin))
Thanks ME. This one is a troll and a cat hater. As you say his true state of mind leaks out of him in his comment.
It is mandatory by law in nearly every, if not every, state of the USA to shoot any dog on sight that is seen harassing wildlife. This is why feral dog-packs are a rarity in most areas. They are SHOT before things get that bad. I keep a paintball-gun loaded with red-pellets for any stray dogs. Stings enough to teach a teachable dog, and leaves a nice signal on their coat. The first time they get the paintball gun (and MAYBE a 2nd time too if they seem to be a well-mannered dog). If that doesn’t teach the owner and alert them to what could have REALLY happened to their dog, then sadly nobody is learning anything — so out comes the rifle next time their dog is seen chasing wildlife.
Cats aren’t so easily forgiven, because from past experience I know that warning a cat-licker JUST LIKE YOU makes absolutely no difference whatsoever (as anyone knows who has ever tried to deal with any of them. I and the sheriff tried that failed method of trying to reason-with cat-lickers JUST LIKE YOU for over 15 years while their cats annihilated all the native wildlife on my lands — from smallest of prey up to the top predators that cats had starved to death by turning all their foods into tortured-to-death play-toys for their cats. And if the native animals were not starved out or killed directly, then all their offspring that were forced to starve-to-death when the parents no longer returned to feed their offspring.
Cat-owners JUST LIKE YOU could really care less about their outdoor cats (or any animals, or any other life on earth for that matter, they would even rather that all humans died than their vermin cats — i.e. pure sociopaths) and they don’t really care how ANY of their cats die. So out comes the rifle on the first sighting of a cat instead of the paintball-gun. They don’t care how their free-roaming community-VERMIN cat is going to die, so why on earth should anyone else? Nobody has the time to put up with a cat-licker’s BS, nonsense, deceptions, and lies. I most certainly learned that the hard way. (At the cost of countless thousands and thousands of native animals on my lands that their vermin invasive-species cats gutted-alive and skinned-alive, tortured to death for cats’ play-toys, over a 2-decade cat-pestilence.)
People who actually care about their animals keep them confined and supervised, or they lose them — permanently. You can tell who actually loves their animals because their animals are still alive. If you treat your animal as an expendable thing then so will everyone else. Again, you have nobody but yourselves to blame for the deaths of any of your domesticated animals that you let roam free.
PSA: The time is now …. Half-Past Kill-Kitty O’Clock …. do you know where your piece-of-shît, disease-infested, invasive species, ecological-disaster, community-vermin cat is? If not, grab a shovel and we’ll show you where its new “loving furever-home” is now. They are now happy little packets of FURRtilizer in their new loving FURRever homes making for wonderful rose-bushes and gardens. Bring a metal-detector in case you were responsible enough to collar and license your cat — that might help you to reclaim your ILLEGAL VERMIN before you are fined and convicted of every last domesticated animal-neglect, animal-abandonment, animal-endangerment law, bio-warfare and bio-terrorism law, and every last invasive-species-act on earth. Got a bank-account? We’ll take it!
