Probably not a good idea, at least make sure the paintgun is non toxic, or
mix some food dye and corn flour up and put it in an paintgun shell or
something like that, because the paint is most likely toxic, and the cat
will hide, and then try to clean itself. The food dye will stain the cat
very well. Use green the first time, unless you REALLY want to give the
owners a scare... then I'd use red.
Also, using a blowgun would be a good idea, because it may be more gentle on
the cat. The key to getting rid of the cat in one easy step, is to scare the
owner, not hurt the cat.
Hope this helps,
Jade.

Paintballs can be "shot" though a simple blowgun.

If you want to do it cheap, four foot of conduit will do nicely, but
remember to blow, not suck!

company, but you should be able to get them from anywhere local that does
skirmish.

couple of searches on your favorite search engine.
