I posted this over on CPC and thought I would let you guys here know about it also.I know you visit the CPC site also but maybe one of you don't.

I was in Wal-Mart with the wife the other day getting some cat food for my personal favorite decoy, oops. I didn't really say that did I.
Anyways I spotted this thing for sale called a Kitty Katcher or something like that. It was a plastic unit with a moving bent metal arm swinging around a fuzzball with a tail. My first reaction was to tell the wife that the guys that like using decoys could use something like that, She agreed and said it probably would work well for diverting ol Canis latrans attention.
I looked at the price and it was under 20 coyote tails.
So, I figured I would let you guys know about this thing. It definately has good potential for a reasonably priced motion decoy for you guys that are up to utalizing its potential. In the pet dept. on a wall shelf in Carson City is where I found this one.
Good Calling ...Walt

Although me and WAYNE have a pretty good relationship, I\'ll have to check it out today when I am at Wally World to see what I can do with it.

It sounds like the perfect little cat and dog attractor.

I'm gonna head over there too. Iwonder if it's like Switches Weasel ball or the Wiggle ball they sell at PetCo. I like the way they work, but I'm not too sure on how much hassle it is to unscrew it to turn it on..

Hey Switch, how easy is it to set up?

That little deal at Wally World ain't gonna do it for me. The one I saw is a little small and it doesn't seem like it will hold up to any real use.

WAYNE is safe for now.

Tim,
This thing isnt that small and waves that whatever it is over a foot off the ground. the unit itself is maybe 10 inches long and then has the waver goody extending from that. Heck I might just have to go take a pic of it.
Anyhow, when I saw it the first thing I thought of was what a good decoy motion machine it could turn into.
And even the wifey-nice thought that also as she has seen more coyote scenarios then most of the callers I have met have.....Walt

The next question is... IS IT NOISEY? We have had some guys hunting around the area and the coyotes are pretty jumpy.
