Trap the cats and put bells on 'em. Then send them back to the neighbor with a note in the collar saying "fork up for some food."

Bells aren't a good idea with the actual situation, though. The coyotes don't need help locating the cats (domesticated ones).

I guess what I'm saying is that my main concern is for the birds. Even domesticated cats are wonderful hunters.

Kill the coyotes, spay/neuter and bell the cats.

I am curious, did your city change to using required 60 or 100 gallon trash cans lately? If so, the coyote's only food may be small animals and pets.

Maverick you didnt do a whole lot to address the problem.

Ive shot stray dogs and cats for causing a LOT less trouble than eating my pets.
Id have been hunting this guy a long time before now.
Please stick to something this man can use.

You seem to have a significant reading comprehension issue.

You're still missing the point. If you kill the coyotes, they'll still repopulate. Bells will only make the cats easier to find.

U of A just finished a study here in AZ.  43% of a coyote's diet is house cat.....and no I'm not kidding.

Keep your critter out of harms way.

We used the dead rabbit recording thing to hunt coyotes, we gave up and just started walking back to camp, when we saw a coyote coming our way. Thing ran off we never saw a coyote in the area again. They are smart predators
Something to the idea of once they know they are being hunted they don't come around.

They'll get the idea real fast when one of their friends is hanging by his foot from a tree right off of our property line touching the lake property. We've had some scentlock that worked wonders when we went coyote hunting in South Texas last year. And we've got a pretty good call. I don't think these are too shy of people since I happened to run up on one outside my house, so hopefully we can get one or 2 in bow and arrow range.

Dude just leave an Acme Catalogue outside your house.
