Title: US state takes aim at feral cats (Winsconsin)
Post by: Mark on September 02, 2007, 18:00:06 PM

This news item was on the same page as the Australian news - what is the world coming to?

They want to make feral cats an unprotected species. I hate that they try to justify it by saying cats kill birds  >:(

Plans to make it legal to shoot cats that aren't wearing a collar  :Crazy:  >:(

Last i heard they were appealing against the decision they couldnt. What if your pet lost its collar, bang and in a stew.

I know you have to have 'pest' control but charging tourists so many $$$$ to go out shooting them is wrong.
