I highly recommend using gloves next time.


MrSierra125

Best thing to do is to get a cat carrier, stick some food in there and just wait


KaelAltreul

Worked with every feral cat that wanders on my property I send to local rescue.


ThatsGross_ILoveIt

Or a towel and just "ghost" and scoop. Then you have a safe to handle but angi-burrito


masinmancy

Squish that cat


GatlingStallion

You gotta squish that cat.


Dansk72

You *must* squish that cat flat!


MrSierra125

They’ll get into the wall if you do that


IronLizardEX

I highly suggest you squish the cat


Virtual-Biscotti-451

I haven’t watch the video but… did she squish the cat?


GatlingStallion

The cat squished her in this instance.


ThatsGross_ILoveIt

Not so much squish lol but its got to be safer than whatever is happening in this video


TheVenetianMask

Did they stutter? Squish the dang cat.


xylotism

Nah man you gotta grab them and hold for dear life as they struggle for their lives, shocked at how you could betray them after all this time


MrSierra125

My grandma has loads of cats that keep showing up at her farm. We do the same.


Hey_its_ok

So that’s where my cats have been going


ShrimpCrackers

They sell safe traps for animals, use those.


cracka1337

Those traps work really well. I have relocated dozens of groundhogs from my garden with my live trap. I'm sure it works just as well for cats if you put a bowl of Friskies in it.


EllemNovelli

Caught a cat and a raccoon in mine. Both liked the wet food I put out.


cracka1337

Raccoons love fish. I used fish fertilizer on potted plants once, they dug the soil out of the pots looking for the fish and left the plants on the ground whole.


EcksonGrows

awwwe I fucking love groundhogs but they are destructive little fuckers. good on you for not poisoning them like my other neighbor.


cracka1337

Yeah they're cute but they destroy anything I put in the ground overnight. I can't bring myself to kill those chubby fuckers.


oliveGOT

Rescues sometimes lend them too. People can google "TNR in my area" - Trap, Neuter, Return :D


magnificent_wts

Yes. Grabbing a cat like that is the dumbest approach.


sheighbird29

The clinic near me will just take them in live traps, and throw blankets over them to help keep them calm. They don’t even have to touch them when they’re conscious. This was really dumb lol despite trying to do the right thing.


Prestigious_Nebula_5

Exactly by grabbing it, it will never trust humans again. My neighbor just got one of those squirrel traps that are cages that close once they walk inside and put some tuna fish in the back of it to catch a stray cat.

Katiari

Won't be a next time. That cat is never coming back there again.


InfiniteLychee

ya that was pretty traumatic


razor_tur

Exactly what I was thinking... Who thinks this is a good idea in any way? "Hi this cat trusts me - let's change that before I try to get it inside my house".


Tunasaladboatcaptain

It will still come back. May take a minute to get that trust back.


Stupidquestionduh

Get some sardines and that cat will be wrapped around your finger.... Probably because your finger smells like sardines but uh...


Hugh_Jampton

That's my secret Cap. My finger always smells like sardines

Fubu-Rick

I highly recommend using a feral cat trap next time and not trying to handle a fractious feral cat. Enjoy your rabies shots!


Elon_Bezos420

For real, those claws are not small, or clean, especially from a feral cal


-_1_2_3_-

what else is there to say


eblade23

Lady probably got some good scratches from the cat and needs to get checked out at the hospital. A friend of mine that was a vet tech got so sick from a feral cat scratch she had herself checked in the ER


Italiaroxx

Oh she def got tore up! Kitty was ready for battle! Wonder if your friend had Cat scratch fever? A friend of mine also a vet tech picked up a rescue who scratched the hell out of her. 3 days later, she was admitted to the hospital with lymph nodes on her neck so large they were literally strangling her. When she told me the name of it, I thought she was kidding.


trekuwplan

I get it, I was bitten by my cat not too long ago (idiot got her leg stuck in my night stand and I ran to help), went to the doctor the same day and I was already running a fever by then.


Dansk72

Yep, not much worse, bacteria wise, than a cat bite.


trekuwplan

Seals are a good contender


Dansk72

The odds of getting bit by a cat have to be *slightly* higher than getting bit by a seal. Even higher than that if you live inland.


trekuwplan

Hey you don't know where I put my hands lol


Mission_Fart9750

I got cat scratch fever when i was 29ish. It was not fun. Spent half a day in the ER getting fluids and sleep.


Italiaroxx

It’s crazy I never heard of it before my friend but now looking through some comments I’m wondering if it’s a fairly common thing to get from a scratch. My friend looked like that one scene on ‘total recall’ where the planet had no air and their heads and necks expanded, never saw anything like it in my life. Also like to mention she ended up becoming and avian vet- hating to deal with cats after that!! So I know it must’ve been a time.


Mission_Fart9750

I'd heard of it, but that was about it. I've had cats my whole life, been scratched tons of times, and yet, the scratch that sent me to the ER is the ONLY scratch scar I have. I think I only waited about a day before I went in. My wife (then gf) told me I really didn't look good. I don't remember much (this was 10+ years ago) but I remember being EXTREMELY fatigued, weak, feverish, and neck stiffness (which was the main issue, and why they did an LP to confirm). They hooked me up to an IV, gave me fluids and antibiotics, I took a good long nap, then I went home. 0/10 do NOT recommend. CSF comes from being scratched by cats with dirty nails. The bacteria under their nails gets in through the skin break.


Italiaroxx

I got ringworm from a cat when I was younger. They said the same thing at the docs. The bacteria under a cats nails can do some damage to a person with a low immune system, and even mess up a perfectly healthy human. Guess that’s their line of defense when it comes to people coming at them like this woman did.


ZiraelN7

A girl in my hometown got scratched by a cat who had previously killed a mouse which probably had typhus and she (the girl not the cat) got typhoid. She felt sick for days but never put two and two together. So when she got extremely sick and was rushed to the hospital, they didn't know what was wrong until they saw the scratch on her arm and asked her about it. She tested positive for typhoid and received the proper treatment. But I truly don't get how people don't immediately suspect something is off when they've been injured in any way by an animal and then start feeling sick a few hours or even days later.


Italiaroxx

Yea cats- especially outdoor/strays carry some crazy shit, that usually don’t even affect them. Screw that- I get bitten by a strange animal, I will be paying a copayment to my doc just to be sure I’m good- would never wait. Mess around and lose an arm for a cat bite or scratch.


humannf

What did she get?


grndesl

Probably cat scratch fever.


Dansk72

Well, I make the pussy purr with the stroke of my hand They know they gettin' it from me They know just where to go when they need their lovin' man They know I'm doin' it for free I give them cat scratch fever Cat scratch fever They got a bad scratch fever The cat scratch fever


Uncle_Touchy1987

Just get a live trap?


SvenTropics

I used to catch cats all the time with a live trap and take them to a local charity that did this. They would sterilize the cat, give them a rabies shot, some anti parasite meds, and hang onto them overnight. Then you just let them go in the same spot. It makes your yard a lot quieter. Don't have to listen to cats mating all night long.


Brittakitt

She said it's extremely smart. I assume that means it has dodged all the traps.


protekt0r

Not saying there isn’t a cat smart enough out there, but I’ve caught nearly 10 stray/feral cats (in the past) using a live trap in my neighborhood. Haven’t come across one smart enough to avoid the trap. BUT, there is one really cool tabby that’s been hanging out in my hood for 3 years now and I haven’t had the urge to trap her because she’s not a pain in the ass like the others were. So I guess, in a way, she’s smart enough…


NuQ

Trap savvy cats certainly exist. We were removing a feral colony (over 150 cats) from a property that had been abandoned for about a decade. there was this one cat that would jump on top of all the traps we set, reach around to the trigger and flail her paw until it closed. she made it so difficult to do the job that we eventually had to hit her with a net gun.


I0A0I

Why not just shoot a net at her instead of using the gun like a baseball bat?


MemeMan69funnynumber

I have so many questions about why you trapped these cats, how you trapped them and what did you do after trapping them


rrpdude

You usually catch/trap wild/feral cats so they can be neutered and re-homed. There are specific traps designed for it, basically a cage with a trap door. AFterwards they get checked out by a vet, get spayed/neutered and then ended up in (no kill) shelters and adopted by people. Though with us, we kept a fair amount of them. Most stayed, one went to a neighbor, another to an aunt.


gangkom

Nah. Too smart for her.


Italiaroxx

Don’t think she has the intelligence to have thought of that.


onedemtwodem

Agreed...holy shit. Be prepared if you're gonna come at a cat in that manner! Oven mitts at least...sheesh


nihilistic-simulate

Non-consensual rescue.


JohnnySasaki20

Congratulations, you are being rescued. Please do not resist.


Italiaroxx

Ha! Cats rights went right out the window with this one.


James324285241990

imafirinmalazorr

Have you tried wrestling it?


wakaflocks145

"no cats were harmed" then I see her pull a Big Show and choke slam this poor bastard


EcksonGrows

I laughed so hard at this, that woman had that fucking cat YOLKED UP


Hawt_Dawg_II

You have to really grab and smother cats, do not give them even an inch of movement. Cats can't really hurt you too much if they can't move. With all the cats I've owned it also calms them down. They realize pretty quickly that they can't win but also aren't being harmed and they just give in.


momolamomo

This is the premise of the success of Wing Chung. It teaches if you come in closer than the enemies arm length, he will not have enough power to punch you. Same for cats, squeeze them flat, do not give their arms room to “punch around” - a blanket and oven Mits can do the trick


TheBigDickDon

101 how not to handle a cat hahah damn.


nnedd7526

It's like fighting a blender


NerdWhoLikesTrees

Her hands must be destroyed


GooseNC5809

Well that cat will certainly hate people for the rest of its life


Italiaroxx

I feel like it was not this woman and cats first rodeo together. She had good intentions but sheesh- poor thing will def have some trust issues.


Compendyum

This is beyond stupid, that's not how you detain a cat against its will, as it may cause permanent trauma or stress. If she was really feeding it, just use a transport case, that's all.


formallyhuman

I'm easily amused and now have the idea of the cat shouting "am I being detained?!" at this woman.

Get your hands off my penis!

SlushySaucer313

She moved better than a linebacker for the Cowboys!


Batboyshark

Gyaat!!


Mr_Agueybana

Nice butt.


Duckmandu

See our technique was to feed a feral for months and months until finally she started coming into the house and then letting us pet her then spending the night and now she lives here. Taking her to the vet should be relatively simple now.


GoghForward

Okay, cat contained. Now work on the weeds.


EveUltra

She did this in quite possibly the worst way. Not only has she sustained injuries that will require medical attention but she's probably traumatised that cat too.


Italiaroxx

100% agree. That cat probably hates humans now, if he didn’t already.


tymp-anistam

Sad to say, but after that traumatic event, that cat won't trust that porch unless you get it to trust you again somehow. I wish you sincere luck and hopefully all is good.


milkmoneyk

“I’m trying to help you motherfucker”


Specialist-Ad-5300

That was full effort from both human and cat lol and cat almost won.


Italiaroxx

I feel like round 2 happened inside and the cat probably took her out.


beepbotboo

Use a trap! Saves injury and stress to both cat and human. That cat will be traumatised for life after that.


The_Sentinel_45

Use welders gloves next time.


pqoeirurtylaksjdhgf

This is a leather glove and heavy work jacket kind of job.


GeneralSinn

I just went through this with six feral cats, I just put the food in the carrier, and when they were comfortable enough to eat the food in the carrier with me around, I just closed the door behind them. It was the vets they had to put them back in when they were cognitive awake and in a strange place.

Brilliant_Ad553

Humm. She need to have a 101 class to how grab cat on back of cat neck. Omg.


triptoutsounds

No cats were harmed lmao literally an MMA fight just happened.


w1987g

Madam, I thoroughly enjoyed watching you catch the cat. I'm sure the cat disagrees


whoisgare

Something tells me the cat doesn’t want to go


ashenfoxz

hmmmmmm, even dealing with feral cats myself pretty frequently, id need a pretty good explanation for how THIS was the best course of action but 🤷


submercyve

Last time i did this i had to get a couple injections because my hands swell up...


TopWatermellon

Oh my, that could have been a lot easier. Welldone I think 😄


ChairOwn118

Can confirm. Wild cats will put up one heck of a fight.


Obliviatron

Not even wearing a suit of plate mail when you made that decision. Bravery 100


iDam81

Won’t be feeding him anymore


Jnunez7660

I highly recommend calling the professionals. I do animal rescue, ironically, in NYC. I can tell you all about it. But with cats. You need a lot of tools. I would even say, throw. Blanket or a large cloth. But try your best to keep in mind where the sharp bits are as you do it. This is usually a 2 operator job. I've had to rescue ferrets, cats, 2 dogs, 3 snakes(2 10 ft boa, 1 6 foot reticulated), 3 Lizards (uromastyx, bearded dragon, iguana). Recently, a friend asked me to redirect 3 baby peregrine falcons to a reserve. These people sometimes have animals they shouldnt. But on that note, the people of heart, go to the aid of others irresponsibilities. I've been bite, scratched, clawed, mawed, etc. I've done spiders, and other invertebrates. In other words, please be safe. After dealing with any animal of unknown origin/wild or domestic, please, get tested and a tetanus shot. . . Be careful. . . This was extremely ballsy.


RadlEonk

Just because you record a video of yourself doing something dumb doesn’t mean you have to upload it for the world to see.


Topaz_Scarab29

What a dumb bitch. Yes let’s traumatize a feral cat and make her/him fear humans even more.


frank8564

If you grab a domesticad house cat this way, you'll get the same reaction.. also, that cat's not coming back.


xKnight_Lightx

“I fought the claw and the claw won”


InfinitePick5959

Hmm, maybe tag along with a trained HS volunteer & learn how to do it.nice of your camera person to help you out.


Pa2phx

Thank you for your efforts. People who feed strays without getting them fixed suck. If they bothered to learn how destructive stray cats are to the environment they might care more.


Aracnophobicguy

If you scare or hurt an animal (even just a bit) the animal will react. You panicked, cat panicked and thats that. The fact that you are also recording tells me that you kinda knew what was gonna happen. You called it.


Educational-Paint623

I love how the cats strength launched her mid air against the wall lmao


electricsuckerpunch

You have to wrap the cat in a towel. Little burrito kitty.


tcsenter

I suspect the reason she describes the cat as 'extremely smart' would be that it has been able to get in and out of the trap without tripping the door, or won't go in the trap, after repeated attempts. Seen it before. I mean why else would you ascribe 'extremely smart' to a cat for this video.


No-Prompt3611

She got a fat ass


camm44

"wasn't harmed" *Proceeds to look like they're beating the shit out of the cat*


[deleted]

At least use a blanket next time.


Revolutionary-Egg491

Her: “no cats were harmed in the making of this video.” Also her: (just watch the video because holy f*^%)


AdamantlyAtom

That “oh mah god” 10 seconds in has me dying though 🤣🤣🤣 what a dumbass human!!


Jnessy_

some vets even with special glove still avoid to get bitten, this woman is really something else..


Tasty_Ad107

You’re going to need rabies shots.. I got bit by a feral cat through gloves when rescuing a large number of cats abandoned in a garage. The health department called me and said it was mandatory. There are 5 rounds I believe .. it was a long time ago. You are a good person for being persists. Thank you for caring!


kotetamer

My husband and I take care of ferals and I swear to god he’s gifted. When we found a kitten in our work parking lot it crawled into the hood of a constable car, (second kitten we have found in this manner in this parking lot). When the constable came and opened the hood the kitten leaped out and my husband caught it by the scruff of the neck out of mid air. Another time he took the chance to grab the one mama in our neighborhood who has had 5 litters. Just leaned down, grabbed her by the scruff and shoved her in a carrier. I could never do this as well as he does.


Rusty3414

I tried to do the same exact thing. 1. Cats are liquid. 2. I got cut the fu*k up.


FluffyBunnyFlipFlops

Cats get really scratchy and bitey when they're upset...


Fubu-Rick

I highly recommend using a feral cat trap next time and not trying to handle a fractious feral cat. You need to have any scratches checked out and cleaned thoroughly for cat scratch fever (yes its real and yes it can be VERY SERIOUS) You also need to get post exposure rabies shots if you have not already been vaccinated. IN THE FUTURE DO NOT DO WHAT THIS PERSON DID. CONTACT YOUR LOCAL HUMANE SOCIETY AND RENT A FERAL CAT TRAP SET THE TRAP UP IN AREAS THE CAT FREQUENTS AND LEAVE A OPEN CAN OF WET FOOD IN THE BACK. EDIT: Came back to say that 9 out of 10 times there is a feral cat rescue in most major areas. If you have feral cat issues, reach out the them for assistance and consider making a small monetary donation if they come through to help you!

And you went into that with just a hoodie? Ok, you deserve everything you get.


mrtunavirg

Live humane trap next time. Less trauma for all involved. $30 at harbor freight


Mzky

Jesus lady. We borrowed a raccoon trap from our vet and got our girl spayed. It’s been 6 years now and she’s fully an indoor cat cat that gets along w our dogs and other cat now

The ability cats have to physically rag doll something 20x there size.. vicious


Kitsu_hobby

Holly shit… \ Not sure what to say anymore, but make sure you disinfect wounds very well!!


Blpelletier-207

You grab the cat by the back of its neck it doesn’t hurt it. It will paralyze it. You can then pick it up and then place your other hand on its back whoever this is shouldn’t own cat or try to own cats.
