Well it is and quite rightly so.the-void said:
I echo Squiffy's words here too. And add that every time you went to take a crap, I'd shoot you with my air rifle and see how you like it.
Something like this would almost certainly require a fire arms certificate and I doubt the local FLO would even consider granting you one under the circumstances of your reasons for needing one. Shooting as a sport is already suffering the stigma of useless chavs blazing away at everything animal vegetable or mineral, leading to the miss-informed to call for a total ban.the-void said:
So don't add any more fuel to the fire by doing something dumb, there's a good chap; There's quite a few of us law abiding shooters who will take issue over the inappropriate use of air-rifles and firearms...
Now the criticism is done with let's get on with something constructive
how about getting one of those ultra-sonic emitters that runs off batteries and stick it in your back garden instead? Cats and dogs hate them and avoid them like the plague. If you have a dog, you could always turn the thing off before letting it out into the back garden. I believe you can get them from places like B&Q and garden centres etc. They cost about 20 quid. Surely this is a better option than resorting to breaking the law?iCraig said:
I wonder what'll happen if I start to kill every bird on sight, because they crap on our car?
White coat time I think
To the OP, if you want to live in a animal free zone I suggest you move into space. Killing everything that encrouces onto "your land" is stupid. You could leave a sign saying "meow meow meow" which when translated into cat language means "no cats allowed"

If I was your neighbour I'd deliberately put the cats on a diet of curries just to make sure they made as much mess as possible, then I'd film you frothing at the mouth, put it on Youtube and you'd be an instant celebrity.

I could get one of those but the neighbours house whose garden backs onto mine has a dog in their back garden. Will it cause that to bark anymore than it already does. I must say that would make me happy if my emitter keeps it housebound

You are a human, they are cats. They don't know what gardens are or anything like that. They don't ration about where to crap, they're cats. They're not as intelligent and perceptive as you, although sometimes I wonder.

The law should be changed to allow me to shoot cats that **** in my garden. Or to enable me to put their owners away for a stretch inside the local jails for letting their pet repeatedly crap in my garden.
I don't want to shoot the other wildlife. Just the cats. If anything, I am doing the other wildlife a favour by ridding them of the fowl cats that plague our cities.

Everything has a knock-on effect. A cat is part of an eco-system, you take it away and the numbers of rodents and birds they keep under control will increase dramatically. It's basic primary school stuff dude.
Then you'll have pigeons nuking your house with crap. "Oh no, now I've gotta shoot all the pigeons. We should bring in a law where we can get an animal to keep these numbers down!"
