| Additional comments | We count 15 adults, 2 new litters of kittens and one actively pregnant female. The adult cats attack and injure resident neighboring pet cats. We've found dead cats that look to have been struck by cars. Many look sickly and injured. They multiply every season. They are on one neighbors porch every night, (the colony address I listed above). We were told by a tenant in that house, the owners feed them in the backyard and have 6 additional breeding ones inside as well, And after kittens are grown they put them outside to live and subsequently continue breeding outdoors. The aggressive males that wonder properties to attack pet cats constantly spray on all our yards. Please please help us. Thank you. |
