The population of feral cats in my neighborhood has gone from 1 or 2 to no less 
than half a dozen.  Due to the fact that I feed birds and promote wildlife in 
my yard, it seems as if my yard has become their favored hunting grounds.  I've 
no doubt that the cat population has seriously impacted native wildlife, 
particularly the birds, snakes and chipmunks and I'm pretty much sick of seeing 
them sitting under my feeders.  The coyotes are not keeping the population of 
cats in check.  There is no question that the feral cat is the number one 
predator in my area.  What can be done?
