The cat problem

"FarmI" ask@itshall be given wrote in message "SG1" wrote in message "Jock" wrote in message "Terryc" wrote in message lol, not a problem at all. Cats don't actually kill that many rabbits, if at all. 1% of prey at best not really lol IMO - the rest (the remaining 99%) are marsupials, birds, small otherwise healthy species not helped by this predation.. The now deceased feral cat did not get the rabbits that often visit here (dunghills in yard) and the dogs did not mind the rabbits either, though they have been going off at the roos visiting the last few nights. I hate to say it but I prefer rabbits to feral cats. At least we used to make a few quid catching the blighters, and rabbit stew aint too bad either. The drought is not over out here yet. Try some Jack Russells. They aren't as effective as the feral cat but they did get quite a few rabbits. Sorry but SWMBO likes her dogs on the larger side. After having a heeler, would not have another breed. Absolutely devoted & protective and the dog adores the new grandson 10 weeks old and thriving. Apart from being ball crazy and at times scatterbrained the 7yo (spayed) bitch is a pearl. Wonderful dogs are heelers and no wonder they are perhaps the most popular dog with tradesmen as a ute dog. as you say, loyal, protective and a great companion. Jack Russells all think that they are the size and toughness of a Rottweiler. A big dog in a little body and far easier to have sit on one's knee than a heeler (as I know from experience). My daughter has a heeler and he loves to play with one of our JRs. He doesn't like our other JR and I don't blame him for that as I'm not too keen on him either (he should have been desexed and wasn't). |
