It is my cat though and it was cat napped by next door, so I've cat napped it back.

So there you go.

Has anyone else ever kidnapped any animals?

    actually, you've been kidnapped by the cat, but don't worry, your feline overlord will treat you well as long as you provide food and comfiness

    otherwise it'll tear your jugular, eat your eyes and then relocate on to somewhere better

    moving next door was a final warning to do better

    Nope, skipped animals and went straight to people.

    This - 100%.

    She rules with an iron paw. Must admit that since she went next door she's turned into a right fat waster.

    Freakin' cat has disappeared somewhere in the house - bet she wakes me up at 3 wanting to go for a cat poo or something.

    Not really - getting your cat back and indiscriminately killing a squirrel are not really the same thing.

    Dunno - cats kill plenty of songbirds (55 million a year in the U.K., according to Mammal Society) indiscriminately - not that different.

    Only if you have the brain of a cat.

    I hope a squirrel runs across a branch, loosening a conker, which bounces of your head, causing you to look up and while not watching where you are going you trip and fall of the pavement into the road and a car mows you down ... Ar$ewipe!
    Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it.

    I think a squirrel is the holy grail for cats. We once had a teeny little cat who was the most prolific hunter. She never bothered with the small stuff and only ever came home with rabbits and pigeons. Quite a sight to see here walking home with a rabbit not much smaller than her between her forelegs. She never bagged a squirrel though. I bet she looked at them and thought 'cheeky cunts'.

    I made the mistake of putting a trap down one to catch rats and it turns out it wasn't rats but a squirrel in the loft eating everything

    Of course by law you are not allowed to release squirrels, they have to be destroyed, humanely, which involves shooting them, you can't drown it or freeze it. So I call the council, but the earliest they can come over is 1 1/2 weeks time. Hardly humane keeping a squirrel in a cage for that long, but it's a £1000 fine for letting it go

    That was a dilemma

    Back in the day, I believe there was a bounty that you could claim from your local PO for a squirrel's tail (and other vermin, I think). It's a long long time since I read about it so I could be wrong. To some people they're lovely fluffy things and to others they're just tree rats.

    grey squirrels are indeed tree rats, central london is infested with them, even plain old rats are increasingly seen in daylight, as are foxes, end result of household waste having to be dumped on the streets in flimsy plastic bags awaiting collection instead of being stored in bins

    had a few near misses where i thought one was going to end up jammed in the front wheel, time for a cull, i'll happily shoot the little sods
