Logically? You need to educate people, enforce sterilization and offer cheap spueter programs. That's also the intelligent, humane and educated way that will actually 'solve' the problem for the long term. Your way is the cheap, redneck, careless, dangerous inhumane, instant gratification and short term solution.

See, it all comes out. "Redneck".
Guess what, pillows (your cat's name, right?) Yours isn't a solution. It's a bandaid. What you are trying to do is treat a compound fracture by setting only one of the breaks. And when that part is healed you say it's okay to walk and then more damage is done.
You can go ahead and set up your 'intelligent, humane, and educated way' (gee, condescend much?). That may solve part of the problem. There will still be the population of cats already in the wild - estimated by the audobon society to be around 40 million. Those will still bread. Left unchecked they will grow. How exactly will your 'intelligent' way solve that?
The answer is it won't. You have to keep the population from growing from the outside AND the inside. Otherwise you're just offering warm and fuzzy thoughts that will lead to more and more feral cats being born in the wild. And their suffering in the cold outdoors and the suffering of the millions of animals they kill will be on your head.
