I got this Black panther that keeps coming to my feeder, should I what kinda gun should I shoot em with?????

Okay maybe thats not true, but we do have a problem with rig tail cats gettin in our stands and peeing and crapping everywhere, We do our best to seal up the blinds, but it never fails every year something will allow a cat enough room to get in.

Anyone else have that problem? Anyone have a solution?

I've never a problem with ringtails, but in general, mothballs will keep a lot of critters away.

Do you have doors and windows or at least shutters on your blinds? Only time anything got in besides bugs was because I left a window open, not really windows but swing down shutters and I use hook latches to keep them closed in the off season.

Ringtail Cats have been known to squeeze in any gaps about 1 inch wide, any play in the windows or door they can squeaze in. I have heard also that mothballs sometimes work.

trap them. They bring good money to the right buyer. Just make sure you have a trapping license though.

Thanks guys I do have latches an some use hook and wire. I wouldn't mind trapping them....just to pay for the carpet they ruin....just doubt its worth all the trouble....Guess I could start shooting em. But thought maybe someone had the answer to all my problems. May try moth balls and make sure windows are tight
