" Cats, both feral and domestic, are responsible for killing way too many birds and small reptiles." Feral and free range domestic cats on the farm are live trapped , given a vigorous spray down with a garden hose, and then released. They rarely return. They can do great damage to ground nesting wild birds on the farm like killdeer and quail and are simply not tolerated.
