We are a far bigger problem on this planet than the (over)population of feral cats, elephants, Canada geese, or any other creature we "manage" or want to manage, "humanely" or otherwise. Tags: Activism Current Affairs Ethics Gray Matters. But who cares about me? What do you all t hink?

It'll be my area's first group dedicated to reducing the feral cat population! Tags: Activism Current Affairs Ethics. I missed the first meeting because I was working, but I am getting the minutes and do plan to get involved and also donate.

I'd rather trap a feral cat and have her spayed. Tags: Activism Current Affairs Ethics Language. Maybe sugar processed with bone char isn't worth boycotting a restaurant over. Maybe it is.
