MY PAPER MONDAY AUGUST 17, 2009
MY SAY
WORK WITH CAT CAREGIVERS
I REFER to the letter,“Why cull stray cats that have been sterilised?” (my paper, Aug 14), by Miss Cheng Siew Luang.
Miss Cheng is one of many people who care for community cats.
They put in time, money and effort to sterilise and take care of stray cats.
This is an emerging trend,and the authorities should work with the growing number of responsible caregivers islandwide.
Killing strays is not only inhumane, but has also proven to be an ineffective way of controlling the cat population elsewhere.
