For some reason, people seem to think that farmers are excited to have all those stray cats that people drop off. It is my opinion, that many of them end up the victims of a shotgun because farmers have too many cats to care for and they have no way of knowing if the cats are healthy or diseased.
Its also against the law to abandon animals like this, if I’m not mistaken.
My area got a rabies epidemic because of a moron feeding stray cats.
Guess what well-fed stray cats do?
BREED like flies.
My little bump in the road village was in the papers every week with a new ‘rabid animal found’ report.
Then I tangled with some of the coons who’d gotten infected and had to get shots.
I love stray cats.
