Australian Govt to kill 2 million feral cats
#4
I signed and I put it on Facebook.

It is hard to believe that they are so stupid and so cruel. There is more than enough evidence now that catch and kill does not solve the problem. The Trap Neuter Release method works and eventually reduces the numbers of feral cats. It is being used in many places quite successfully. Why would any one go back to the last century to the brutal, useless kill method.

The sheer numbers of animals they would have to kill should tell them that they are wrong. There is so much that could go wrong. Other animals will get killed and the ecosystems can be damaged.

Worse the cat numbers are not reduced by this method.

If they used TNR they could get vast numbers of animal loving volunteers to help them. In Toronto the vets give their time to neuter the cats. The volunteers do the trapping and the Toronto Humane Society gives use of its clinic and other facilities.

Who would they even get to do the killing?
