Don't set your limits so narrow, Al. Week before last, I took out about a 25 lb stray tomcat that I've been stalking for a year. The bastige has sprayed IN Tammy's Trans Am twice and hits all the tires and bushes outside my house every night. He gets my 3 cats in an uproar and you never see anything but a glimpse of him. Idiot boy made the mistake of getting a drink out of my pool while I was looking out the bathroom window. Ruger was at the ready so I popped a LR hollowpoint right in the top of his head. He did a nice little backflip and didn't even mess up the pool. I'm now the local hero of the neighborhood. Seems I'm not the only one who's been stalking him.
Bad part is, I love animals and I really do feel badly about the whole thing but I had no choice. Got 3 cats of my own, all fixed and ever roam outside unattended, 1 west higland flinger dog type critter, a beta and his buddy the snail. Nobody, including the snail is allowed out on their own. Wish other people would do the same.
