Haqi - re: feral cats. The most humane thing you can do is trap them and have them neutered, then release, so they don't keep breeding. If you feed them, they will breed. Been there, done that, had so many of the poor things living in the bushes around my college apt. that my nickname for them was "the Viet Cong." There are vets who will neuter feral cats. And you can rent a Hav-a-hart trap from the humane society. Put some smelly fish like tuna or sardines in the trap and cover with an old blanket that has been out in the sun and the rain and no longer smells like people. We have succeeded in turning feral kittens into pets but it's not easy. Once you have tamed them, usually you can give them away, but please make sure that whoever gets them will neuter them. People who love song birds will tell you that you are doing the wrong thing by taking care of feral cats at all. We now have a tamed feral mama and her three grown kittens (we adopted the whole family) and they are terribly destructive to local wildlife but we have no rodent problems at all.
