If you see it happening, walk out there and make the owner pick it up. If he doesn't want to, call the cops on him for trespassing.

They would care if you could prove it, but lets face it, pets "run away" or "go missing" all the time.

Actually, they probably wouldn't care much if I could prove it, which is why I wouldn't bother with the cops in the first place.

Sure, I may never find out what happened, but if I do, someone is going to have a serious problem with their head, and I'm not talking about dandruff.

Agreed. All of our animals are chipped.

So the life of a cat would be worth a life in jail, the police may not care about cats disappearing, but I think they would have a problem with you killing someone over a cat. That would make a hilarious headline though.

I live in the woods.

Really? If you'd have read ANY of the thread...

I gave up reading after pg1 with every excuse you come up with with not getting rid of them. Either kill them or run them off.

Don't be too hard on yourself.

You are not alone.
