30 000 feral cats

sounds like a great opportunity for some cheap shooting with the .22

maybe the local motels and restaurants would benefit from spreading the word

No we want that in a T-shirt....

I must admit to be surprised by the comments about yotes taking care of cats. Every cat I've ever seen being chased by a dog was usually up a tree or pole pretty quick. Now a yote is likely quicker but so are cats, specially the wild ones. Fishers now, that's a different story. They can easily out climb a cat. When we had that big influx of Fishers a dozen or so years back lots of pet cats disappeared, even some small dogs.

I'd buy one those t-shirts too.

Cats try to run up trees from my drahthaars too...try. No feral cats around them.

I spend a fair bit of time in Norfolk forests each autumn, and I have NEVER encountered a cat. However having read this article I know what to do when it happens.

Yep protect your self they are mean and wild.

A couple of days ago the sister-in-law got bit and scratched by one of the feral cats that she has been feeding for a while. Never was aggressive before, but now it turns and attacks her. The family made her go to the Hospital today because the pain was so bad. How bad? She is on super heavy duty pain killers because of her back, and this pain came thru that. She has problems that would mask any of the Rabies Symptoms, because:a general feeling of illness, fever, headache, poor appetite, muscle aches,depression are normal for her.

She feeds two cats, but one has been fixed and has had shots( don't know if the shots are all current), but the one that bit her has never been to the vet or ever had shots.
