With such a black and white view on things it's quite likely you shot someones family cat...

Because they're not native they're not protected?

It will continue to catch many a cat and I will continue to drop them off at the RSPCA where they can euthanize them for me. Native wildlife saved, killing machines gone. When I moved in here 18 months ago, I reckon there was about 2 dozen or more, some feral and some pets. All off to the RSPCA
Could use the .22 with subs, a little risky i think

It was Gwions use of the word 'most' .....that I struggled with.
I should have highlighted it.
( he probably should not have used it ! )
P.S. he's from 'down there', right ?
I / we, should cut the poor sod some slack ?

Dont know about other states but I Victoria its councils (not all obviously) that require they be inside at night and on owners property. So its not well policed. Just a paper tiger.
