Good for you. I live in Calfornia and when I'm out if I come across a family cat who comes up and says "Hi!" then I reach down, pet it, and see if there is a collar and bring it back to the owner if there is. Otherwise I take it to the nearest pound.

The cats that run or otherwise act wild get shot.

California Quail, the state bird, are being hunted to extinction by non-native cats and I will shoot the feral cats every chance I get to protect the quail and other birds.

If cat "lovers" really loved their cats they'd keep them safe inside their homes. Safe from Parvo, feline leukemia, dogs, other cats, raptors, and me. I can't tell how many times I've seen someone's cat become a hawk or eagle snack. You cannot tell me that a bullet from my rifle is a less humane demise for a feral cat than to be dismembered alive by a hawk or an eagle.

Excuse me, but just who the hell are you threatening to shoot somebody's cat just because it prefers to be outside than inside?

I'm afraid if I saw you shooting a defenseless animal, I'd have you arrested so fast for animal cruelty your head would spin.

So, you hunt quail with a rifle ? Or do you just use that when you're cat hunting?

I don't get people who let their freaking pets roam the neighborhood to crap on other peoples lawns and dig through their garbage. We have a big problem with that here and I am really tired of it. I have a fenced in yard and my dogs stay in their area. Other dogs and cats seem to enjoy climbing my fence and crapping in my yard and destroying my plants. People can be real Aholes.
