I am so sorry that is horrible I hoped you called animal control

Grrr...

Neighbors dog killed Mama Kitty and one of our kittens named Dippy today. We're missing another kitten named Scotchy that I fear that we'll find dead as well.

That is horrible. I'm so sorry.

Oh I am so sorry.

If your neighbor's dog got a cat, it could get a goat kid.

I'm sorry for your loss

I've talked to the dog warden 3 times today (well twice and one vm) - that is the amount of times that the dog has been here. First at 7am when DH ran it off, then at 9am when Mom found it standing over Dippy and found Mama dead. Then around 7pm when I came home from the store to find it on the property I tried to run it down with the car.

If I can get to the gun while it's on the property I'll do the warden's job for her.

The warden knows my position on the matter. My last vm to her said that she had better take care of the dog tomorrow or my shotgun will. Then I remembered that tomorrow is Saturday and she likely won't deal with it until Monday...so I'll likely be shooting a dog this weekend. It makes me sick to think about but my animals are my priority.

I'm missing more cats after the last visit, so I am highly ticked at the moment. I am so tempted to go next door and demand that they hand over the dog.

I know how you feel, I hate dogs that kill animals, except for LGDs doing there job

It's not the dog's fault truly...it's the owners. She has a responsibility to contain her dogs. But she doesn't care. She trains them not to potty on her property and instead sends them across the road. She used to send them here until I put a stop to that a long time ago. This dog (and a pup) are new to her and she just lets them run wild.

But I have a responsibility too - to protect my animals. I am so mad right now that I could just spit.

Sometimes people just suck....esp. when animals have to suffer for it. Sorry about your cat and sorry that the dog has an idiot owner.
