The hype against this has been unbelievable...and totally misguided IMO.

The policy was never written to eliminate feral colonies. It actually stresses relocation before erradication in "Problem" areas.

Read the article:

"[font=Verdana,Arial, Helvetica][font=Verdana,Arial, Helvetica]After the anti-feral policy was approved last year, the commission's staff said their first steps would be to identify feral cat colonies on state lands, assess which ones posed the most immediate threat to native wildlife and take steps to remove them through adoption, the relocation of feeding stations or other strategies. But they haven't done any of this."[/font][/font]

Just FYI.

"
· The FWC will NOT initiate a campaign to eradicate outdoor cats.

· The FWC will NOT act against home owners for letting their cats outdoors, although we will recommend against it.

· The FWC will NOT be patrolling the streets looking for feral and free-ranging cats.
