For those that allow their cats to roam, and are curious where they go, this study may give some insights.....

I guess that I will never know. Unless I subscribe.Judging by the plentiful supply roaming my neighborhood it isn’t to a free spa and neuter clinic.

it is irresponsible to let them roam. they really hurt the native bird population for one thing, in some areas to the point of endangering survival. How would you like if dog owners let them roam?XL BGE and Kamado Joe Jr.

most of the dogs around me that roam are happy go lucky friendly dogs, when the problems start it is usually one of the penned up dogs on the loose. my dog roams as soon as i let him out of the truck at camp he beelines 6 houses up the street, the neighbor lets out the lab and she beelines back to my house for a beef bone handout

Murder machines. Mine met his fate (assumed coyote) a few years ago. It’s hard out there.For those who say they shouldn’t be outside: We adopted a semi-feral cat. Tried to keep him inside and he literally did
$10,000 damage to our house and furniture. He was chill if he could come and go but a monster when cooped up. I wouldn't have another cat because of it but there was no way this cat was going to be an inside-only cat.I would imagine the local bird, lizard, and rodent populations were pleased to see him go. I know my couch was.Keepin' It Weird in The ATX FBTX -

Rather see the money go to kids school lunches.
people claim they keep pests away. But it’s the same people putting and leaving food outside to feed their animals that also bring in the pests.
Also neighborhood cats tearing up my grill covers as scratching posts and crapping in the yard. I welcome coyotes...Thank you,DarianGalveston Texas -

I have a "have-a-heart" trap that I set. Every cat I catch gets relocated.

Those spay-nueter programs for feral cats are mostly privately funded and they work and save money in the long term.______________________________________________I love lamp..

House cats just aren't native. They really hurt the local wildlife. Not just birds, but smaller birds can really take a hitXL BGE and Kamado Joe Jr.

We have 5 cats and since they are well fed they may kill a 3 or 4 birds a year.______________________________________________I love lamp..

Releasing the problem back into the neighborhood is a poor use of resources. And this entire situation was created by none other than animal lovers who failed to take care and responsibility for their animals. “Cats are born to run free”...then if you live in the city...choose another pet.Just my opinion. Not a knock on responsible pet lovers.Thank you,DarianGalveston Texas

I have this cat in my hood that sprays my car several times a week.

For those of you that let your cats wander near my home or out in the country where I hunt, you do not need to wonder where they go to after I see them. They will have been 'relocated'.
