I certainly havent but those work great in the kitchen for me. Everything I’ve tried on the mailbox has been some thing I found laying around and extremely hurried ha . It’s one side of the hinge on the bottom that lost its crew and I have just been putting random things in there

Zip tie that puppy shut! No more open door and no more bills! You’re welcome.

I see the rods in the background. All the baits removed? We have 2 cats and every time I bring the rods in the house to work on them, it's playtime with the cats. Don't know what it is about fishing line with them. Like a crackhead begging for a fix.

Unhooking a freaked out cat is really hard too, so I've heard.

The door never wants to stay shut so I’ve rigged it 100 different ways to stay closed, each time a little more haphazard than the last. All that comes in there is bills that I throw away anyhow haha 

Why not just go buy another mail box? Put it on your credit card, wait a month to see if the new box works?

?

If it does work then go back to buy the zip ties that @12poundbass suggested.

I was flipping a baby bullshad in my room, and our cat jumped up and snagged himself.  He was a jumper!  The lure came out during the fight...

I caught my sister's cat with a Spook Jr, I was not so lucky and the removal process while not getting hooked/bitten/scratched was very tedious. A 10lb grey tabby puts up a heck of fight when they dig into the carpet though ?‍♂️

I had to get a possum out of someone’s basement once and it dug all its claws on all 4

feet into the carpet as soon as I grabbed it. The grip strength was unreal, I thought I was going to have to cut the carpet

Its amazing how tough a cat is even a house cat. People talk about how mean and scrappy dogs can be but I feel like pound for pound a cat is much tougher. Also they are deceptively strong and athletic. Take my cat Sullivan for example. He's a lazy laid back 14lb house cat. He can also jump up on the kitchen counter with no effort. I'm not so sure he couldn't  jump to the top of the fridge. That's like me jumping up to my roof.

Can't agree more. My cat growing up was a hunter. She'd leave for days and would always come back with a present for us - albeit dead.

One day I was playing ball out back and my cat was just sitting there while a bird would come down to with 5-6' of here trying to irritate her. After like 3 or 4 time the bird did that my cat jumped up and snagged the bird out of the air. The bird just fluttered down like a jig with a rage chunk on, only to be eaten my a hungry cat. ?

This is one of our cats. He weighs in at a measly 25lbs. On his hind legs stretched standing up, he's about 4ft from the floor to his front paws Was the runt of the litter. His sibling, first born and only female might weigh 5lbs soaking wet.

Sure is. Very friendly and personable as well. And solid muscle. When he gets it in his mind to play rough, he plays rough.

Good thing is I was almost to the end of my 2 mile pedal to the creek I wanted to fish when it happened. Had to turn around and pedal all the way back, into the wind, without ever finding out if there was fish in that creek or not.

The daily thunderstorms disappeared, so a beautiful Louisiana day spent on Lake Martin.

As a fourth generation stonemason, I’ve worked on quite a few properties over the years where my dad, grandfather and great grandfather have done stonework in the past. I got this pic the other day from a contractor I do a lot of work for. It’s a fireplace that my grandfather built 60 years ago. Definitely one of a kind. It’s round, with four openings at North, South, East and West. Apparently it works quite well and doesn’t smoke at all, which is pretty impressive considering the amount of openings it has. I’ve built many double sided fireplaces before, but never any more than that.

Had a reel that was just screaming (literally every cast), for attention. Well it got it, all the way down to the frame. I only had 1 panic moment when I dropped a tiny pin that supports the clutch cam plate. By some miracle, I was able to spot it on the floor.

Well, that's better than a spring-clip flying off into the void...had that happen one time when I was servicing my old Abu 500R. Took me two weeks of calls and visits before I found the proper replacement...this was before the internet existed.
