Most rescue centres and animal charities actively promote trap-neuter-return policies, and will fund this if no-one else to do so. Along with providing low cost/no cost neutering for pet cats, it is the only viable solution.
Take any alleged impact on birds with a big pinch of salt, there was a survey done in the UK which blamed cats big time for disappearing species/reduction in numbers when the actual culprit was significant environmental changes, particularly the loss of hedgerows. (err, hello?!)
Some people just don't/won't see the bigger picture.
The fact that pet cats have been deliberately killed already says it all.
JC, what are you complaining about? It'll give you new scope for images to post! There are beautiful photos at
ifaw.org and some them will break your heart - especially the pictures of their work with the 'forgotten victims' of the
tsunami - the pets, livestock (read livelihood) and endangered species affected by the disaster.
