    Wow! That is harsh!!! Our animal control in my area have to round up and neuter and find homes, and sometimes euthanize, homeless pets. I do not know how I would react if they started this kind of movement.
    Proud to be a crazy cat lady!

    It's getting to be brutal all over and a contributing factor is that many people just will not listen when it comes to altering their pets. There is a law here where stray cats are trapped and euthanized w/in 24 hours. It's awful.
    Blessings,

    How awful. And how tragic, how sad.

    If I could be there with you to be another loud voice in opposition, I would be in a heartbeat.

    Why not institute a TNR program, and education program with inexpensive spaying and neutering?

    I will have to look up the address and post it where Pet Talkers can address thier concerns,
    I have no illusions that I can change anything , at these discussions you get upand are given a minute to speak but not debate the issue at hand.
    Then they do want they want anyways.
    I hope the some of you recieved that letter on the by law changes that I sent out.
    Its sad that in cutting costs the Poor Strays are going to be scape goats.

    That is outrageous! #%&%# Let those who care enough to help them do what they can and leave them ALONE! Why not make stricter laws for owning a pet? Laws to MAKE them be s/n or be fined? It is people who do not s/n that are causing the problem.... If your neighbor has a cat that has kittens, set up a hot line for the people around them to call and turn them in. SOCK the fines on them...

    So what happens now? They start multiplying like crazy and they are into everything looking for food because nobody is feeding them and they are starving? Neighborhoods get over run with strays so the people who live there are allowed to treat them with cruelty.. Open season on strays?

    I see this creating a lot larger problem than how it is done now..
