New Jersey Could Re-Classify Feral Cats, And Allow Hunting. Not For Haz.

Animal groups: Could ruling lead to hunters shooting cats?

The cat: Common, popular house pet or exotic, dangerous animal?

A number of animal activists have contacted state officials in an effort to head off a potential reclassification of feral cats, which could end the growing number of programs that trap, neuter and return them back into neighborhoods or the wild, and allow them to be hunted.

Such a reclassification could bring an end to TNR programs like those in Morristown, Mount Olive, Netcong, Boonton and Randolph, and could allow hunters to shoot cats.

Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. The only thing you can’t do is ignore them

It's a balancing act in my yard.  The cats (feral and just plains on the loose) help keep the rat, mouse and chipmunk population under control, or so I'd like to think.

This has nothing to do with "Guns" or "Hunting". Read close, it's about money.

"which could end the growing number of programs that trap, neuter and return them back into neighborhoods or the wild,"

Those programs receive government funding. The lefties don't want to lose that money.

10 ring on that one, Tom.  Don't get me wrong, I'm an animal lover (and hunter) and I am totally against any form of animal cruelty, however, why should we waste tax dollars capturing and neutering cats?  There are an infinite number of ways that money could be better spent.

There's no closed season or daily limits on feral cats here. I think that's how it should be.
