Yes! I am very concerned about the decline of many of our natural species! I have many birdfeeders, birdbaths, a pond where ALL animals may come to drink, and I plant milkweed in my garden for the monarch butterflies--ALL in my tiny yard in the suburbs of Chicago. I help any and all creatures. I can tell you that my two, VERY well fed cats have NO idea how to hunt and have never caught a bird in my yard. And yes, they are allowed outside when we are home. Those feral cats are going to exist whether I am here or not. I try to make sure that human beings do not kill them...or any other creature on this good green earth. And for what it is worth, there are coyotes nearby who do their own hunting on those ferals. It is the circle of life. There are no easy answers for the feral cat population in our cities, but I will not allow any animal to be poisoned, shot, or terrorized on my shift. <br /><br />I hope that helps you understand where I come from. But, if not, it's okay to disagree. :)Linhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07042143254001890567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2374808830322685957.post-80638787196353762942014-07-29T21:16:13.982-06:002014-07-29T21:16:13.982-06:00Sounds like a good summer trip!
