I think you can be a cat and bird lover and still believe that "eliminating" these stray cats is a good idea. I think most deer hunters would tell you that they really love deer, but they realize that if the population is not controlled, the species as a whole would suffer.
The argument is very similar for the stray cats. One or two stray cats on a few acres probably wouldn't hurt anything, but 10 or 20 would hurt the other wildlife and the cats would also suffer without anything to hunt.
I really sympathize with Rex and mod_wagon_driver here. What is the real difference between having your property full of stray cats or rats?
If he has kids should he tell them that they're not allowed to go out into their own yard because it is overrun with sick stray cats?
