My cat nailed a squirrel today!

No other mammal can jump a school bus, lengthwise!

Are you really that stupid or is this some sort of act.

Go visit some of the abandoned sections of Detroit some time (I have). You'll see more songbirds than you'll know how to count (assuming you would even recognize a songbird if it hit you in the face).

Go visit the abandoned section of your brain that knows what "leaving the cities" means.

FALSE!

The red kangaroo can out long jump AND out high jump a cougar.

Did the squirrels and birds weigh 20 pounds, like the cat.

When I moved into my house the neighbor used to let her many cats roam free into my yard. I have bird feeders and baths and the cats took their toll. I asked her to keep them indoors but she said that's what cats do.

So for a few days I let my lab and two German shorthairs roam the yard instead of the kennels. A few days after that some missing cat posters went up and I never saw a kitty in my yard again. Not sure what happened, but those cats probably underestimated how fast a shorthair can run. Or maybe the lab, he's a stone killer.

The less cats, the better.

Weasels aren't mammals. They are more like furry lizards. Shave off the fur and you will see.

Finding people that can count in the abandoned sections of Detroit is such a chore these days.

I don't think a 20lb cat would be catching anything

That was a tough snake too! Kitty didn't back down.

Harsh checkmate but warranted by the "stupid" comment.

("Pointing' - bad handle for that post)

Nice play nice everyone!

Jake is right. Aside from a few very specific dog breeds known for hunting or combat - think husky, doberman, pitbull, etc - the average housecat will rip apart most dogs of comparable and often greater size. I've even seen housecats scare off pitbulls and german sheppards.

"Fewer" cats (countable).

One time I fell asleep and my cats ate off my fingers and toes! They are such awesome animals!

This is booty. My dog killed 3 cats at once and one of them had a gun.

someone should introduce some cats to Detroit

Lions are technically cats and they did pretty well this year. However, they lost to the songbird Cardinals so nevermind.

My cat's breath smells like cat food.

Did you watch the cartoon Tom and Jerry?Why is Jerry so afraid of the neighbor dog?

When I was a kid I watched my cat snag a mockingbird right out of the air. It was absolutely awesome.

My cat was walking along a wooded fence row and the bird must have had a nest near by. The bird kept swooping down and grabbing and biting (one of the two) my cat by the tail. Mocking birds are pretty aggressive when protecting their turf. My cat just ignored the bird the first couple of times and then all of sudden she leapt into the air perfectly and snagged the mockingbird on his 3rd dive bomb.

Most awesome thing I ever witnessed a cat do.
