I think a far more humane solution would be to implement a TNR program for feral cats.
What is a TNR program?
Trap...neuter...return.
I have less time for feral cats who do most of the damage. A TNR program would be too hard to manage and too damaging in the interim.
Plus what happens when a domestic cat goes feral or its kittens abandoned back to square one.
TNR programs have been extremely successful in cities where implemented. It's humane and ends up greatly reducing the population. It's not at all too hard to manage.
Reducing is not the issue we need to eliminate.

Think this thread needs a title change to "On a less lighter topic".

Because otherwise the native bird and reptile population will be eliminated.

Yes my fault I have caused this thread to take a darker turn.
I don't like domestic cats. I have nothing against cats as an animal / mammal/ species I just don't like domestic cats. I grew up in a house with a cat. I hated it and it hated me and everyone else that lived in our house. It was like sharing your house with a lion.

Post has taken a darker tone than I had intended. All well - good discussion is good...but companion animals are awesome. What is the last thing Joe did in this life? He took his dogs for a walk, right? Good enough for me.

It will never be as dark as the IMCTPMS outbreak of 2009. This is a mere trifle.

The various IMCTPMS (serious credit to RP for that name) all blur together. What was that one about? DCT, I'm guessing?
