Call Animal Control. The cat sounds rabid, and you don't want to hear what happens to a human bitten by a rabid animal.

theres one sure way to take care of a rabid cat... a high powered pellet gun. don't use a real gun, too loud and will freak out your neighbors.

rabies in humans is horribly painful, makes them violent and irritable, is deadly and a generally horrible way to die. The FIVE shots required to treat it are administered right in the stomach, making the treatment pretty crappy too.

Hmmm... you could shoot it with the pellet gun, but that's inhumane and hope no one catches you. I'd search the area that the cat keeps appearing in... maybe there's something there that you can see that it might be attracted to in the first place. Other than that, it's animal control. Failing that... you ever see the movie, Cujo?

Oh yes, because shooting an animal in the head is inhumane, but sicking a dog to maul it mercilessly until it finally dies being torn apart is really alot more merciful.

HOWEVER, my cousin used to have a bird problem at his house. he used to go outside and shoot them with a BB gun all the time. Sure, neighbors got a little miffed at the 'animal cruelty' but so long as it was HIS property, the animals were trespassing and could be shot.

LOL!! Actually, I hadn't remembered the part about the dog mauling the cat in the movie. I was more referring to the supernatural aspect of the dog and how it was "stalking" the people at the house.

Do as Attalus said and call Animal Control, it's best to let the experts handle it.

Rabies

Vaccination series to prevent rabies after exposure


Rabies vaccination is a series of shots given over a period of one month after a possible exposure to rabies. Rabies vaccines contain inactivated virus particles that increase the body's immune response, which in turn helps destroy the rabies virus. Three rabies vaccines have been approved for use in the United States; all are considered equally effective and equally safe. The vaccines are:

Human diploid cell vaccine (HDCV).
Rabies vaccine, adsorbed (RVA).
Purified chick embryo cell culture (PCEC).
A rabies vaccine (HDCV, RVA, or PCEC) is given:

In the form of a shot, usually in the upper arm muscle for adults and in the thigh for children. (Shots are never given in the buttocks because they are not very effective.)
5 times over the span of 1 month. The first shot should be given as soon as possible after suspected exposure. Additional shots are given on days 3, 7, 14, and 28 after exposure.


See, you really don't want that. Call Animal Control.
