@Scizor3D Glad u asked this, after filming this i actually went to the nearest farm house after hunting and knocked on their door after dark, asking if they owned a white fluffy cat. As i was still in hunting cams, the lady cried and said we always worry about tiddles being shot.... I put her mind at ease by saying that i didn't and wouldn't shoot this particular cat in the future..... Unless he has a parrot/rosella in its mouth.... might be a different story!!

How can a Fox whistle work with a cat? You'd think the cats would actually be scared off by them. Are feral cats in Australia tough enough to hunt a fox? Do they steal foxes' kills?

@cage2cage hi cage... the fox whislte is called this as it imitates when used properly an injured or distressed rabbit. Cats being predators naturally respond to this as an "easy" meal... Fox whistles not only work on foxes, and cats but most predatory animals, but also crows and even english hares, hawks, eagles and owls. Not that i would shoot nor condone the shooting of any raptor species.

feral cats in Australia decimate populations of marsupials every year... They are to be shot o sight at every chance one gets!!!! I'd rather shoot a feral pest animal than say deer any day !!!!

@JAGUARDRUIDA Why don't you look in your own back yard and get off your fat lazy arse and do something about the raping of the Amazon Rainforest.?? Or are one of these people that sling mud from their jail cell without actually doing anything to help the world... DO YOUR BIT FOR MOTHER EARTH.... become compost IDIOT

I think the cat is becoming an animal that has outlived its purpose in the modern (and developed) world. It was alright to have them run around and eat rats 50+ years ago, but now, we have very cheap poison for that. Fact is, a Tokay Gecko is more useful than a cat. If you have a bug problem, look into buying a Tokay Gecko.

@cage2cage the whistle does not represent a fox...It represents a rabbit squealing in distress...Cats hunt mice and rabbit also so it is in their instinct the react to the whistle like a fox.

@Scizor3D the cat deserves to be shot if it wondering around in the forest, because it is most probably killing native animals. Its not like cats care about their owners or have a connection with them.

@Fleefles fleefles just so we are clear...... the problem is that feral pests such as cats are in fact eating native fauna not srewing them.... so i can't see how neutering them will help.....

@callawaykidd

Actually, PETA is all for mandatory spay/neutering of all animals kept as pets or domesticated animals. They are against animals being kept in captivity, so are all for spaying/neutering them out of existence.

However, I think instead people should be required to keep their cats contained on their property, just like horse, bird, dog, snake, etc. owners are required too. I'm not sure why so many people think its fine to let their cats roam off their property.
