    Keep calling AC and reporting the destruction of your property. But to deliberately put out poison to kill the cats is very wrong.

    Just as everyone else has said, yes it can kill them, but you can also get jail time for animal cruelty. Also on top of the jail time, you could be required to pay a few hundred to a few thousand dollars a cat. I would suggest continuously calling animal control and the police. If not then pack up as many as you can and leave them on the spca's door step.

    its not the cats fault its the lady's so either move, get used to it, call animal control again or gradually take them and hand them over to the no kill animal shelter. If you give them rat poison the will just puke everywhere. I can not believe someone is so inmature and heartless to kill 20 cats.

    Yea, and anything that eats the cats will die too. And you can be sued for endangering little kids and birds and anything else that may get into the food. You'd be better off calling animal control and letting them deal with the feral cats and the woman who keeps feeding them.

    I would advice you to call the Police because the problem arent the cats, the problem is the Lady.

    The woman seems crazy. Either she needs to tske them all into her place and adopt them, or leave them outside.

    Seriously! She needs help. Have you tried speaking with her?

    You can be arrested for doing what you are planning. You could get 5 years in prison.
