"Don't Shoot the Cat."

This afternoon at the Law School, a student group held a meeting about the Wisconsin proposal to permit hunting feral cats. They had an attractive poster:



Here's the "Don't Shoot the Cat" website.

I was going to go to this meeting and blog about it, but I decided not to (because I avoid using this blog to intrude on students). I think feral cats -- nonnative predators -- really are a serious problem, but I understand the sensitivities of people who love pet cats. I do think pet cats should be kept indoors, and a lot of cat owners don't like to face up to that and are in denial about the problems their cats cause.
