I'm sure everyone here is well-intentioned and I can see both sides of this. What strikes me as in most posts about animals is that some people step up and take action and others say what they think should be done.

I have trapped coons and possums that were a nuisance in my yard and it is not difficult. I assume that anyone could take responsibility for removing the cats. Of course you'd have to decide whether to relocate them in the wild or take them to a shelter. Thinking back, people used to talk about drowning cats, but we don't do that anymore, we "put them to sleep."

My hat is off to lovinganimals for taking action, yes for feeding the cats but more for getting them spay/neuter care, which is a forward-looking highly responsible social action. Without that there would be kitties all over paradise.
