Reply #11: Way too many feral cats... [View All]

[gmoney]

I love housecats as much as the next guy, but being elbow-deep in feral cats breeding like crazy and killing real wildlife is a problem. This idea that they could all be trapped and fixed/adopted is pure fantasy... the shelters are already overflowing, and there'd be zero money in the budget to pay for surgery for feral cats (especially when there isn't similar money for household pets). Bob Barker was right about getting your pets fixed... that's what's led to the feral problem in the first place.

If you're going to get outraged about this kind of thing, how about the hunting of wild horses, bison, etc. that are quietly going on out west? I can guarantee that housecats will never be driven to extinction, but plenty of other species will be.
