Where
Does It End?

Fighting the 'unprotected
species'status for domestic feral
cats!
Cats are one of God's creations
One of
many on this earth
That don't deserve cruel
treatment
Or the denial of their
worth
The human race creates a
problem
Then expects it to just go
away
And if it grows out of control
Feel
any 'fix it' method is okay
It is sad to
see what people
Are capable of
becoming
When it is easier to simply
kill
Than to do the responsible
thing
Cat's are not as much of a
threat
To this world's environment
As
those who wish to harm them
With their guns
and malcontent
Felines are companions to
many
Natural predators of rodents and
such
Killing them isn't the solution
It's
just an ugly, inhumane crutch
You can
view it from any side
And keep trying to
justify
That giving license to kill is
right
But in God's eyes it's still a
lie
This poem was written with a
lot of emotion on my part as I am an animal
lover and have great respect for the creatures
God put on this earth. As you may have heard, a
proposed law was recently introduced in
Wisconsin attempting to classify domestic feral
cats as an 'unprotected species' which would
basically allow a person with a small game
license to kill any cat not wearing a collar. As
this poem indicates, I strongly disagree with
this proposal and feel extremely sad that it has
even become an issue.
