In response to Feral Cats posted by rdrisdelle:
TNR is nonsense. Colonies never go away . Cats are fueled up by feeding. Mortality on cats is reduced dramatiically, colonies attract more people releasng cats and
" rescuing cats " from shelters The "cat nutters" fraudulently adopt all the cats they can and release them to the cat colonies/ranches. Every bit of scientific research done indicates TNR is propaganda. The old smart ferals never get trapped and enjoy all the food for making kittens. TNR is designed get the "cat nutters" viewed as the good guys. They are not and they are organized, aggressive and politically active. They are being paid in some juristictions
(Florida KEYS)for gasoline and cat food. Cat populations are exploding. Cat nutters are winning, kiss your wildlife goodbye to say nothing of the huge public health hazard these tick and flea covered cats are cauusing. Feral cats are meat eating "rats that say meow" from a human disease transmission perspective,.
