Shorter Steve Dale : Hey, birders, agree with me that feral cats should be left in the wild where they will kill birds.

… The ordinance would allow Minneapolis residents to establish cat “colonies” where abandoned and wild cats can be fed but also vaccinated, neutered and identified in an effort to humanely cut their population and control disease. Feeding bans don’t stop cats from “multiplying”; neutering does.
