Please keep your vermin inside, thank you.
 
If you've ever done any herping in rock on rock situations along the east coast, then these spiders are extremely common
And extremely quick moving!
There is a differnce between house cats and those that are allowed to wander at will, pparticularly at night. As suggested, it might be a good idea to enquire as to the circumstances before you put the animal or its owner in the cross hairs. And should you just plain hate cats under any and all circumstances, they have have people called Psychologists and Psychiatrists that you should seriously think about visiting to help witth your affliction.

Feral cats are second only to foxes in the damage they do to our native wildlife. Being primarily an arboreal predator that has adapted to a primarily terrestrial existence in semi-arid Australia, they certainly account for a wider range of prey. They have ability to exist in what would be considered a dehaydrated state for a pet moggie and therefore are able to penetrate the more arid areas not occupied by foxes. There is a clear relationship between rabbit numbers and cat numbers. When rabits were reduced to myxamotosis, cat denumbers declined appreciably. Unfortunately, insufficient studies were done at the time and most eveidence is anecdotal. Cats are able to suvive in the semi-tropical areas beyond where rabbits can breed, due to the presence of suitable alternative prey. However, if we could get rid of feral rabbits, the cat problem would decline significantly. so get out there and start shooting bunnies unstaed of giving well kept domestic moggies a hard time.
