Fawn,

Cats are immensely destructive to bird rookeries. The Greynold’s Park rookery was once world renown because it was an urban rookery surrounded by miles of north Miami concrete jungle.

It also had Scarlet Ibis which had been brought in from the Caribbean. Let me define why that rookery is now a thing of the past.

The water had trees growing in it, and alligators swimming in it. These provided the three basic requirements for a rookery:
1. Substrate - support on which to build a nest (the trees).
2. Freedom from predators - the gators ate the racoons and feral cats attempting to swim to the nests.
3. Food - the birds could find sufficient food within acceptable flight distance to support the adults and their growing young.

Once a dimwit lawyer forced removal of the gators, the racoons and cats killed so many birds that they left. Permanently.

Man has managed North America for at least the last 11,000 years. They managed it for man’s needs and any organism (plant or animal) that couldn’t adapt, went extinct.

Don’t worry about feral cats going extinct. Worry about the prey animals for a millisecond and then consider being concerned about your American culture going extinct.

We are, after all, in another battle of the Crusades and Islam is no “Religion of Peace”! American culture could also go extinct from the same thing that killed Rome - too many barbarians (Mexicans in our case) inside the gates.

If you still think killing feral cats is of surpassing significance I have only one question - Got Burka?

;-)

I hope to God they do become extinct....through spaying and neutering via responsible people.

and as a matter of fact, I do have my burqa....here I am in my black one:
