Cat-Killing Bird Decoy
Growing populations of wild cats across North America have sparked controversies in some areas, such as Wisconsin, where proposals have been made to make it legal to shoot any outdoor cat on sight. So when FARM SHOW noticed an ad for a new cat-killing decoy, it caught our attention.
  The DSE Cat Killer is a combination caller and decoy that operates on four AA batteries. The unit emits a constantly changing sequence of chirps, while at the same time a replaceable bird decoy is moved around by a small electric motor. Every time the bird chirps, it moves. Eventually it pivots a full 360 degrees.
  "It's the next best thing to live bait and it works not only on cats but also on such predators as coyotes and foxes," says Dennis Stilwell, DSE Outdoor Products, Indian Valley, Va. "It can be used to bring predators in to be shot, or placed inside a cage-type trap."
  If a predator demolishes the bird, the bird can be easily replaced. It's designed to break off the rod.
  The caller decoy sells for $39.95 plus $3.95 S&H. A 3-pack of replacement birds sells for $9 plus $3.95 S&H.
