Working Cats Program
The Working Cats Program in Los Angeles, California, created by animal activist Melya Kaplan in 1999, is a green program that relocates sterilized and vaccinated feral cats to residences or businesses with large rat populations.
The program provides a useful role in society for feral cats, who would otherwise be euthanized in shelters.
It is humane for both cats and rats, who through traditional extermination methods, die painful deaths through poisoning and glue traps.
Instead, the rats are simply repelled by the cats' odor, and leave the site.
The program was first implemented in 1999, at the Flower Mart in downtown Los Angeles.
The area was plagued by rats, and the extermination methods (spraying poison) was not only making the humans sick, it did not solve the rat problem.
Melya Kaplan, Executive Director of Voice For The Animals Foundation, brought in sterilized feral cats, and the rat situation was brought under control.
The Los Angeles Police Department is another benefactor of the Working Cats Program.
When some of the police stations were overrun with rats, Kaplan stepped in to suggest using the program.
"We get cats from the shelter deemed feral (unsocialized), [who are] going to be euthanized because they're not adoptable," says Melya.
"We put them on site, where they're going to live for the rest of their lives.
" The process begins with taking healthy feral cats from shelters and getting them neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated.
The cats are then brought to the new environment, and kept in a large holding cages for a minimum of three weeks where they become accustomed with the sights, smells, and sounds of their new location.
This is called grounding the cats (acclimating them to their new homes).
Once the cats are acclimated to their new environment, they are released into their territory where they will remain.
The cats are given fresh food and water by their new owners, which is mandatory because they do not eat the rats.
It is the odor of the cats that drives away rodent populations.
The program has been successfully implemented in the Flower Mart, Crossroads School Campus, The Los Angeles Police Department (Wilshire, Foothill, and Southeast Divisions), the Self Realization Lake Shrine in the Pacific Palisades, and various residences and small businesses.
Other animal advocacy organizations around the country are now beginning to use this program.

Geelong Football Club
The Geelong Football Club, nicknamed the Cats, are a professional Australian rules football club based in the city of Geelong, Australia.
The club competes in the Australian Football League( AFL), the highest level of Australian rules football in Australia.
The Cats have been the VFL/ AFL premiers nine times, with three in the AFL era( since 1990).
The Cats have also won ten McClelland Trophies.
The club was formed in 1859, making it the second oldest club in the AFL after Melbourne and one of the oldest football clubs in the world.
Geelong participated in the first football competition in Australia and was a foundation club of both the Victorian Football Association( VFA) in 1877 and the Victorian Football League( VFL) in 1897.
The club first established itself in the VFA by winning seven premierships, making it the most successful VFA club leading up to the formation of the VFL in 1897.
The club won a further six premierships by 1963, before enduring a 44- year waiting period until it won its next premiership—an AFL- record 119- point victory in the 2007 AFL Grand Final.
Geelong have since won a further two premierships in 2009 and 2011.
The Cats play most of their home games at Kardinia Park( known for sponsorship reasons as GMHBA Stadium) and play the remainder at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
Geelong's traditional guernsey colours are navy blue and white hoops.
The club's nickname," The Cats", was first used in 1923 after a run of losses prompted a local cartoonist to suggest that the club needed a black cat to bring it good luck.
The club's official team song and anthem is" We Are Geelong".
