Default Re: Animal hoarding and welfare and stuff

I have wondered about the ethics / legality of trap and release. Ordinarily to take in an animal and vet them is to accept responsibility for that animal, releasing them sounds like abandonment to me.

Our neighborhood has a program. I will say that it is better than gassing them all as Dallas does. They get some life and I guess it keeps the rat population down. But I worry about the toll on bird populations and disease. But the life of a feral cat isn't that great.
