if you just want them dead, some people i know have had good luck mixing a bowl of cream with about 15 crushed up asprin, of mixing antifreeze and tuna. not as fun as shooting them but it works. you should see them jump when they get thumped with a rage 2 broad head. if you bait the live traps with the tuna mix, you dont have to shoot them and or worry about them dying in your barn or under your deck.

just killed me one tonight

I used to have about 40 or so cats in my yard at night.
Untile a neghbor let their dog run loose.
They never fed it, I gues he was supplamenting by eating all the cats, LoL
It could have been the coyote I saw a few miles down the road.
There all gone, except 1 or 2.

Get a hungery dog.

A .22 will definately do it. i have dropped 2 in the past month with a .22lr with winchester super x hollow points.

I have a old BSA 22 cal pellet rifle its nice and quiet for here in town but if i see ole pusyykitty out in the field he's lible to have anything from a .17 hrm to 45-70 thrown in its direction.read a while back they kill more than a million songbirds a yr here in Missouri. time to do some serious thinning. I come home at night and theres prob 20 cats in 2 bloc area all out in the street . got 5 live traps baited in the back a the truck tonight little tuna juice down the drive way for a trailing scent they dont want to bring out the trapper in me LOL But it did seam like season closed to soon this yr.

When I was a kid, we killed feral cats with a 12gauge and #6 shot. Never had a lot of luck using a 22LR on cats, had to shoot many of them twice. They're tougher than they look.

Depends on whether the 12ga did its job or not!

Heck,im in Tn i'd be happy to come over and help you thin the population.I got a 22-250 that ain't be bloodied yet.Or a 17hmr or we could take the Colt AR out!

I hate cats they are the #1 killer of birds and small animals in the united state. kill them all..... I have hunted in many states and found that every state has an over population of cats people let them out at night and they dont come home???? opps hit another with the truck?? OPPS any cat without a collar and more than 100yrds away from a building the 22mag gets sited in a little better. I like to carry a shovel just in case... Like the way that most of you think

ya try to get them out as soon as possible
