Caring about wild cats
 
How much do you have to pay to keep from feeding your cat
animal digest (ughh!)?

I am helping the neighborhood cats out right now...and there are a lot
of them...and I refuse to feed them animal manure as seem to be in all the
dry food I have come across!

Anyone know of any clean dry cat foods that don't cost too much, so I can
help out more wild neighborhood cats?

Mark, is there a trap, neuter, release program in your area? You are not
really helping the big picture if you are supporting these cats so they can
breed and make more cats that will suffer.

It is my current observation (correct me if this is not right) that animals
in the wild tend to multiply until their environment can no longer support
them. This has worked on Earth for millions of years.

I invited you to correct me. If all you can do is throw insults, you must
agree with me.

Not really. What tends to happen is they overpopulate terribly, then
die off in droves from diseases caused and easily spread by
overpopulation and sickness when the food supply cannot support the
population.

The availability of food from humans and around human habitation throws
the wild equation out the window.

Seen this in deer and rabbits, can't see it'd be any different with cats.

I just can't see this. There are animals all over the world living just
fine
in their given environments. Especially protected animals, like our cats.

Humans are just a part of the ecosystem to the cats.
Humans are just as likely to provide sustenance to the cat
as a totally wild environment.

Cats are a *lot* smarter than deer and rabbits.
See how quickly they figure out just who to come up to, to ask
for a helping hand.

A group of them have already outsmarted me with their purrs
and tranquil eye gazes!

I firmly believe felines know how to judge the ecosystem before
getting it on with other felines.

You're right that all she can do is throw insults.
