CountryByNet.com Forums :: Great Hunting Dogs

shade2u2, Sure glad you released the turtle unarmed. There has been entirely too much weapons related violence from those upity anphibians. I'm sorry, the devil made me do it! I had an Air Force buddy that had a Siamese cat that they kept on a real long lead in the back yard of their house on base. As they were at the edge of the housing area their yard backed on an area of tall weeds. It was something to see the cat stalking ground squirrels while dragging at least 50-75 feet of white clothesline rope. The lead would move the bushes in an arc so you could track the cats progress when she was in the weeds and out of direct sight. Even dragging the rope she could catch as many as 5-6 ground squirrels in a single day. She piled them up on the back porch like cord wood and always brought her humans to see her good deeds. You could tell she was real proud to be providing so well for her family. I guess ground squirrels aren't so smart. They used to get run over in groups. ONe got hit then as his buddies came out to canabalize the fresh freeway pizza they would get hit and so forth. Might see 6-8 almost in a pile. Still, credit where credit is due, for a cat draging a rope through tall weeds that Siamese did real good.
