Title: It just doesn't make sense The Feral Cat Neuter and then release program
Post by: uncle buck on October 01, 2015, 01:05:55 AM: My township...looks like more and more they listen to the anti hunters when it comes to the feral cat program...If you catch a feral cat you can get a coupon to get it Neutered..OK I can go for that.. Now the next thing is that they release it again right where you live.. Negative thing is the old thing: OH THE POOR THING SYNDROME!!! You have people in the housing development that just can't help themselves and they start to feed these feral cats outside.. They won't adopt them and take then in and make them a house cat.. What happens is the other wild critters come in and start to eat that cat food and then the skunks and coon start to tear up your lawns for grubs...There will be a time when this release by local governments back into the environment and the feeding of the POOR THING neighbor will start a RABIES epidemic that will be telecast on all kinds of News Stations across the 67 counties of Pa...
So what do you do? I don't like the lawn being ripped to sheeeeeeeeet so I have been treating the lawn after the fact with grub killer...Now think about the ripple effect... All the grub killer will be washed into the water supply etc etc... All because someone spoke up for the feral cats and the local township supervisors just can't tell them NO. You can imagine how many song birds that get killed... Even non song birds that eat insects that now have a open door policy on your gardens and you skin... Some wisdom here: BEWARE OF PEOPLE THAT LOVE ANIMALS MORE THAN HUMAM BEINGS! The law here in my township also stipulates that: If you feed these feral cats they are yours. They have been known to fine people for feeding them...So you have the feral cat lovers really breaking the law. The cats defecate in your gardens, sleep and urinate all over you porch and lawn furniture.. The ripple effect is something else on this release program thing.. Won't be long until some toddler is bitten by a rabid feral cat. Will the township take full responsibility for the release of the animals then?
