Most local animal control units will loan you a live animal trap. Just bait it
with some tuna and you'll have a cat a day to turn in to animal control. The
owners can claim their freshly spayed/nuetered cats, and pay the fees for the
operations and room and board when they pick them up. After paying to rescue
fluffy once or twice they most often decide that fluffy is an indoor cat.

Subject: [wisb] On the Issue of Feral Cats
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?
