The Difference Between Dogs and Cats

[Dean Romig]

I admire cats for their survival skills and their ability to come back 'home' after two years away, bigger and stronger than when they left. The on I am referring to belonged to my in-laws and was never 'cuddly' or anything like that. He had his space and if someone encroached on it he would let them know. He left home when he was six and came back when he was eight. He was just livin' off the land as evidenced by his many battle scars and ripped ears when he returned.

My family had cats when I was growing up and we had cats when my daughters were growing up.... but I could have lived without them, very easily.
I have never hurt a cat but I don't especially like them - and I think they can read my mind because they always keep a respectful distance when I happen to be around them.

My cousin Tim in Ohio who maintains his farm for turkeys and deer - well, that's another story for another time.

House cats, barn cats are different than a feral cat which kills just for the fun of it. This morning Duke was going crazy at the window. Out in the field was a big black cat. I've never seen him before and went for the Hornet to give him a little sting. He must have figured it out as he was gone when I got back from the basement.

When I'm hunting be it birds or deer a cat is always a target.
