Personally it would be great if all pet owners were responsible. -- You're living in a dream world. --
Any reason to WHY TNR worked better than taking to HS? Maybe cats just are smarter after they get trapped the first time or... Your were just on the verge of getting rid of ALL of them and semi broke the cycle. I only have a few now but of course I've seen a few more from over that way and a few more there so... It will probably take me 15 or so before I see a dent in the population. My problem is if my neighbor saw me trapping her cats she would go BALLISTIC. I know a few of them but I'm not sure about the others. Even if I 'knowingly' catch one I'd probably take it in anyway since it would just be back over again and again.
Mind you none of her cats or the cats in my area have collars. I guess I'd feel a bit strange taking a cat in with a color or tags. I don't want to be mean to anyone around here but if I talked to them for sure they would be the first ones over if cats ended up missing.
