To throw cat poo over my neighbour's fence?

I suspect I probably am but have had a few glasses of wine so here goes!

My neighbour's cat turds all over my garden and it's really pissing me off, especially as dd crawls around out there and will eat anything. So, DH stalks the cat, surmises that, because it spends an inordinate amount of time statistically on one particular neighbour's flat roof, it must belong to them.

So, I tipped a whole bucket of saved up cat poo (I mean, what else can you do with it - it surely isn't nice to put it in the black bin with your food waste?) over the fence, so it is now sat there in a rather suspicious looking mound. Some of the turds have gone mouldy. I expect my neighbours will see it in the morning. I have now had to throw the bucket away. Do you think they'll think it's me, or just a rather large cat? AIBU for being a cat poo thrower?

I have the same problem, bloody cats leaving piles of poo (and sometimes little pools of diarrhoea) in the gravel outside the front door and in the flower beds. it's never buried.
I wouldn't chuck the poo though unless I was 100% certain of the owner.

so because it is a domesticated animal's nature to stalk and kill it's ok to sacrifice what little wildlife is left in this country to them?

please throw a ball at the cats, don't shoot them. My cat was shot last year and it was horrible..

i would hope that if i shot at a cat, it would die.

i wouldn't otherwise want to cause it anymore misery than is necessary.

UCM · 20/06/2007 23:17

Well keep them in then, don't expect other people to enjoy your horrible cats shitting in their gardens.

kiskidee · 20/06/2007 23:17

erm a magpie is a wild bird. that is nature....

a cat is a domesticated animal....

it should be controlled by its owner.

not allowed to slaughter wildlife....

UCM · 20/06/2007 23:18

Everyone I know who has Burmans etc, keep them in, they don't allow them to go shitting in next doors garden, who may or may not have little kids.

weebleswobble · 20/06/2007 23:18

Kiskidee I do hope no one feels as strongly about you as you do about cats

Have only read the op but that's what I do - I chuck the turds over the back fence where the cat always comes from.......

I'm sure it's there cat......

UCM · 20/06/2007 23:19

That must be because they are worth a bit more than your average pussy. Maybe?

I have just spotted this thread. Have often thought of doing that.

youpeskykids · 20/06/2007 23:21

This really does have to be one of the most amusing thread's I've read recently on MN....

Sorry, don't mean to offend.

stleger · 20/06/2007 23:21

My observation is that when I was young cats used to dig and bury, modern cats don't.

UCM · 20/06/2007 23:22

But why because a hat cunts, that isn't reasonable.
