Time for a cat cull?

Postby Rolluplostinspace » Wed Mar 20, 2019 10:23 pm

The only pet that people leave to run wild crapping any and everywhere.
The only pet where the owners cannot be held responsible for the animals behaviour in public.
People move house and the cat returns to it's old haunts and becomes wild.
There are too many cats.
Would a cull be acceptable to any significant number of the public?

I like cats. My cat is quite loyal ( he followed me into an ambulance once and sat on me twice quite determinedly when I had a meltdown when my dad die, he’s an amazingly friendly crabbit wee bastard. What’s not to like?

I don’t like they murder but i wouldn’t cull cats because they murder, it’s not their fault they’re murdering g bastards.

In Morocco they neuter all stray cats, they get their ear cut with a V formation so that they know they have been done.

they should be neutered, not culled.

Neutered might be a good start.

Neutered, yes. That would eventually avoid any need to cull.

Nature would take care of the rest ...

We got a LOT of stray cats here when the local hospital closed and was torn down. They used to cull them around the hospital, but would keep some for the rat hunting, but I always thought that silly, as neutering would have stopped them re-breeding.
I also have Catlady at the end of the street who feeds every cat that appears, then I get folk asking me if I have seen their cat! I point them in her direction. They ain't gonna go home if someone else is feeding them!

It's time to limit the amount of cats people can have, Make neutering compulsory if you are going to let them be outside cats.

I think it is.
Maybe even a licensing system of some kind and with today's technology maybe chipped.
The people causing the problem is so called cat lovers and no I'm not blaming all cat lovers.
Some are irresponsible but probably are cat lovers.

Me and the neighbourhood cats don’t get on. Probably because we’re so similar.
