There's a little bit of wildness in every cat. Loveable, cuddly house cats, stray and abandoned cats, and feral cats are all instinctive hunters, and they are decimating small wildlife.
Domestic cats are abundant, and their numbers are growing.
Their population density is higher than that of any natural predator. It is estimated that the average well-cared for pet cat kills over 100 small animals every year. With 6.5 million pet cats and 3.5 million stray and feral cats statewide, the carnage is adding up. A Case in Point San Diego is a lovely place to call home. Beautiful vistas, mild climate, beaches that are among the best in the world.
