I am a dog person, not a cat person. Our neighborhood has zillions of cats roaming around. One would hide near my bird feeders to catch the birdies. I stopped feeding birds for a while and eventually moved the feeders.
The neighbor couldn't stand all the cats pooping in his kids' sandbox. He started trapping them and bring them to the pound. Helped quite a bit I admit.
The funny thing is we have much more problems with wildlife in the city than when I was growing up in the country. Bears stealing from feeders. Cats. Skunks. Pigeons. Squirrels. Racoons. Starlings.
My DH traps squirrels in the live trap. After he traps them, he puts peanut butter on the end of the barrel of his pellet rifle. They lick the barrel and it takes only one clean shot.
