I'm a member of Cats Protection in the UK, a welfare organisation for cats, and the majority of their work involves re-homing strays and the neutering feral colonies of cats. So although the majority of us seem to be lucky enough not to be affected, there are some severe problems, in city centres as well as in rural areas.

I enjoyed your very articulate plea for cats to be allowed outside - as you probably read, I love seeing cats enjoying the outdoors, and also, like you, I love meeting other people's cats. The posts about the outdoor environment in the US were fascinating - some people we met in New Mexico this summer were amazed that we don't have snakes coming into our "backyards"!
