It's soooooooooooooooooooooooo incredibly entertaining to see Make Kitty do the Chicken exercise his constitutional rights to eradicate cats, that I think I'm going to make a movie of him dispatching one of the filthy, stinking things and upload it to YouTube, so everyone can see and enjoy the survival talents of a species that's been over 200 million years in the making. The look on the cat's face as the venom courses through its body is completely priceless, lol. Uncooked cats must taste like crap, because I swear Make Kitty do the Chicken licks underneath the dead cat's tail after he's killed the stupid thing, I'm sure to get the nasty taste of cat out of his mouth. I only wish that I'd kept closer track of exactly how many of the filthy, stinking things that I've seen Make Kitty do the Chicken dispatch so far. It must be close to 30 or 40 so far, and the count continues to rise, thank God! Go Make Kitty do the Chicken!!!!

I was in the Royal Marines and on weekends, we used to go out to this rural farming area with a couple cans of ammo and three or four 50 caliber sniper rifles. You hit a cat with a 50 cal round from about a mile away and the impact spray wets everything for about 20 feet away from where you find usually two or three little paws that were completely blown off as the round hit the stinking little bugger. We used to collect them and make keychain ornaments out of them. They sold like hotcakes in the local villages, lol. The British version of the ASPCA finally figured out what was going on with them and complained to our CO, who tried to put an end to our weekend target practice, but was thankfully, unsuccessful. I believe that watching a cat explode as it's hit with a 50 cal round would be even more visually interesting than watching Make Kitty do the Chicken dispatch one. Probably going to have to go to Camp Pendleton now and get one of the recon boys to do the honors with the 50 cal rifle. Should be easy to film however.

It's difficult to believe until you actually see it, but Make Kitty do the Chicken actually recognizes me and will come to me if I call him correctly. Snakes don't have ears, but their eyesight is EXCELLENT. If I wave a certain piece of cloth so MKdtC can see it, he will crawl right over to me, coil about my feet and patiently sit there for as long as I'll let him. He will allow me to stroke his head and he will allow me to pick him up. He wraps a coil about my arm and will patiently rest there until I let him back down to the ground, at which point he will uncoil and go back to his favorite ambush spot. MKdtC has NEVER shown any animosity towards me and to the contrary, has always acted very, very friendly to me. I'm the only one that he will allow to get this close to him however, for reasons that only he is aware of. He does not scare me, although he could, if he elected to do so, very easily kill me every bit as easy as he dispatches cats. I do NOT have to restrain his head like you do most snakes, since he shows absolutely no aggression towards me and never has. I guess this will probably work ok until the day I attempt to pick up the wrong snake, lol. MKdtC is very, very, very territorial and I've never seen another diamondback anywhere near our yard, so I'm fairly sure that MKdtC has a monopoly on HIS space now. MKdtC has, on many occasions that I've handled him, gently, gently, gently licked my fingers with his tongue. I know enough about snakes to recognize that when he does this, he's simply tasting me to make absolutely sure that I'm who he thinks I am and not someone who will attempt to harm him. Snakes are not known to have personalities as such, but I will assure you that MKdtC does indeed have a "personality" and it is completely unlike anything that a human would ever expect from a rattlesnake. I've tried to convince my lawyer to come over and take MKdtC around the yard on his arm, but he keeps refusing. He probably knows that MKdtC and I have a little deal worked out. I'm surprised that MKdtC would bite a lawyer, I thought professional courtesy would keep all lawyers safe from snakebite. Well, I'm just trying to advance the body of knowledge about snakes, even if it is at the expense of a lawyer. We've got too many lawyers today anyway, what's the big deal if we lose one? Be interesting to ask MKdtC what tastes worse, a cat or a lawyer. I'd bet on the lawyer, but I'm probably prejudiced, lol.

I think your anger towards cats is likely misdirected. That said, feral cats are certainly an issue- spay and neuter! I think there's a county in the midwest that is attempting to address the problem with a 'cat hunting season' no joke.

This is not kewl or funny!!!

This is a damn shame!!!
