Default Dataw's Feral Cats are Fine

One idiotic woman wrote in reply to my post how they should stop
neutering the cats because it makes the marsh rat population increase.
Uh, what? How does a feral cat not having testicles relate to an
increase in the marsh rat population?


And why the heck would anybody want to kill off marsh rats
anyway? They're cute little things, harmless (except for
carrying a few diseases you can get from a lot of other
things you're more likely be in contact with) and they
occupied your part of the world long before any humans.
