We have 6 cats and live out in the country. Our cats are indoor/outdoor. This past week one of our cats came home and had been shot in the right shoulder, being the second of our cats this has happened to in the last 8 months. Both cats had to have their right arms amputated. There are only 6 people on my street, and we have talked with them about the possibility of our cats being a nuiciance, and to let us know if they want them kept away. All of our neighbors claimed they didn't mind our cats one bit. Most of the cats stay in our yard anyway, or hang out in the woods.
We just found out a nasty old man lives way back in those same woods with his mangy dog, and he likes to shoot things on his property. I called our sheriff's office and was informed he has the right to shoot anything on his property, because there is a leash law in this state!!
This just seems rediculous to me. Is this just the backwards state I live in, or is this law common elsewhere?
