    There are estimated 1.219 million pet cats in NZ, so if we extrapolate the numbers above that comes out to 84 thousand cats getting run over each year (thats probably a little low given the higher population est above). That's 230 cats run over a day.

    ...one cat shot because owners let it roam, versus 230 cats A DAY run over because owners let them roam. Anyone else see the root problem here?
    Yep cats not wearing their high viz
    When hunting think safety first

    This was a big tom with the mighty Stirling 14p back in 2017 before I gave the old rifle a new stock.

    That stock certainly has a ‘patina’!
