I saw story when I clicked the link about the Twin Peaks waitress.

Residents in Old East Dallas say they are fed up with dogs roaming the streets at night killing their cats. They've heard the killings outside their bedroom windows and watched the dogs trot off. But they don't know what to do.
They can't capture the dogs themselves. They say Animal Control doesn't come out while the dogs are still there. And they say police won't respond if humans aren't in danger.
"I'd just like to get a gun and sit on my front porch and shoot them. I'm just so mad," said Will Olliverson, of Junius Heights. He found his 15-year-old cat dead in his front yard last week, and a veterinarian told him it had been shaken to death by a large animal. He said a neighbor's cat was killed the same day.
