if my child ate some of your cat shit that was in my garden due to your cat coming over the fence (it is rarely supervised when it comes over by the way) and was then made ill...May of been mentioned before but I really hope you supervise your child?!
I thanks you! 😀
I hope your cat's OK, OP.
My wifes cat got eaten by her fathers dogs.
Your wifes cats father keeps dogs - respect.
Glad the cat is on the mend.
As has been posted ^^ as long as it was reasonable/last resort, I would have thought yes.If a dog comes into my garden and attacks my cat, may I kill the dog?
On that note, a guy at work was in the position where his dog was attacked (in a public place) by another dog off the lead, which wouldn't let go or stop the attack despite being kicked etc. After warning the other owner, he took out his *knife and cut the attacking dogs throat. Police were involved and no action taken as it was deemed justified.
*Dog was out for pre-work walk and knife carried for work purposes.
As a Lurcher owner my dog is kept securely in the garden, but has been known to chase after cats that roam into the garden. It's even had a couple of cats in its mouth but lost a clump of head hair and had a bleeding nose to show for it.If my dog got out of the garden and hurt a neighbours cat i would pick up any vets bills and make sure it didn't happen again. Any cat coming into the garden when the dog is out is fair game. Darwins law.
This. Writing as an owner of 2 lurchers. In my garden the cats take their chances.....

Absolutely.
And are we agreed, then, that an unaccompanied lurcher in [b]my[/b] garden takes his chances?
