We've a lot of cats coming through the garden. I wouldn't mind if not for my dog, who does and goes insane when she spots a cat. So I've been thinking about getting a super soaker to chase them away. I think that's pretty harmless, and perhaps they learn to skip our garden after a while... What do you lot think?

I think they taunt you by shitting in your flowerbeds while you're not looking.

"Next time it won't be water".

A bucket of bullets does not sound that threatening. A bucket of battery acid, tepid water, or mud, a bit more. Although I would not recommend escalating stuff in general, people fucking around pets needs that sometimes.

That the risk you take with an outdoor cat. It's not even like water is harmful to it.

I used to have an outdoor cat and if that happened I would have shrugged it off and expected him not to go there again.

It's the risk you take letting your kid go outside. It's not even like water is harmful to it.

I used to have a kid that went outside and if thst happened I would have shrugged it off and expected him to not go there anymore.

Well someone might just hit your car, that's the risk you take by driving, nobody got hurt, they shouldn't be held accountable. I would have shrugged it off and started taking the bus.

This is fun, we can remove all accountability from everything that's not harming someone directly!
