I'm ashamed to say that, regarding this topic, I was thinking along the same lines. Except that I was thinking more of the use of shotgun pellets fired into a tree to persuade the cat to either shuddap, get down or die. I figured that the latter choice would be nothing more than a good beginning. Sorry. I've just been annoyed by our cat, for the past coupla months. Could I interest anybody in a fine pair of warm homemade gloves?
