My step dad often took a cab home. The next day he never knew what bar his car was at.Too much Whangdoodle Wipe Out...

I've kinda thought the same. As long as it's not anyone's pet, why not eat cats or dogs or horses? Meat is meat.
My neighbor has feral cats that I'll not shed a tear for.
We used to live on a street with feral cats. Ruined my garden. Would poop in front of our front door out of spite. Our street reeked of cat pee. Definitely wouldn't have minded if they fed a family or 10.My neighbor has feral cats that I'll not shed a tear for.
Same here. I have a shady yard. Lots of birds stay in my yard. I feed them every morning. One my nearest neighbor's cats come down here eyeing my birds.
I had 3 generations of Cardinals nesting in my trees. I never had so many at once. The cats had kittens and wiped them all out. The county dog pound is useless.
I never got a tick from my yard until this happened.
I know what you mean. For a long time I was greeted with the cat pee smell every time I got home.
I am so sorry to hear this! My problem isn't nearly as bad. I still have a lot of cardinals and many other birds. I used to have more of a problem, but it seems like since the gaze of Fuzz Butts (that's what I call raccoons) started staying here the cats don't venture down here as often. The Fuzz Butts sleep in the day, so I still see cats sneaking around sometimes. But, it does seem like they don't sneak around as much and they are a lot more careful when they do. I feel like I live in a bird sanctuary. Being with the birds is heavenly to me, so I'm not too happy about cats eating them.
I thought the reason people have been complaining is that it is people's pets being eaten? Or ducks and birds from the local park, which are often pretty tame. Can't see that people would complain over ferals, as its doing everyone a service, and like you say, meat is meat - or at least, one man's sacred cow is another man's steak...I've kinda thought the same.
