I've started to put dried dog food out on the grassed land across the road from my flat for foxes, hedgehogs and rats. Whichever gets there first will eat the food. It's a high quality food, with beef, salmon, vegetables and essential oils and vitamins. I didn't soak it first as if it's wet it goes off quicker if it isn't found and eaten within a day or so. Tonight I filled a litre sized measuring jug with the food and threw it around a small area, rather than just tip the whole lot out into a small pile.🦊👍

... This is dafter than when you were chucking banana peels about the place.

That really is a very stupid thing to do. It WILL attract rats more than anything else.

I asked AI to show the 'real' me.
We were leaving one morning to find a bag a dog poo on our front step and wondered which neighbour we had annoyed. So checked the cameras to find it was this culprit that had found a bag of poo to play with. Not a good pic but shows it throwing the bag into the air before depositing it on the doorstep.

Why would you want to feed rats? There again people feed pigeons (which are just a sort of flying rat), so what do I know?

I haven't see a fox around here for a long time, I suspect the texels have duffed them all up.

We see a couple of foxes moat weeks. One has lost part of its tail. Usually around sunrise or late at night.

What, feeding the wildlife in the depths of winter?! People feed hedgehogs in their gardens. You'll think that's wrong as well, no doubt!😏

obvious attempt at deflection

you bragged about feeding rats, disease carrying and destructive vermin, as well as foxes, notoriousy wanton killers of farm animals as well as pets

that's antisocial behaviour

Get real, you sound like a pro fox hunter! All wild animals carry diseases, not just rats! Next you'll be saying the usual 'foxes kill loads of chickens for fun, only taking one to eat' blah blah! As for foxes killing farm animals, no doubt you are a carnivore, so why pretend to be concerned about animal welfare when you are prepared to eat slaughtered in horrific conditions farm animals! No one was 'bragging'! I just posted about feeding the wildlife in these freezing conditions! I'll ask you as well! Do you have a problem with folk feeding hedgehogs in their gardens?! A straight answer would be appreciated, rather than a little rant about rats and how they spread diseases yawn yawn!😴
