Description:

The Richmond Animal Protection Society is a non-profit organization. Most of these cats had no contact with humans before they were rescued from potentially hazardous environments. Controlled exposure to staff, volunteers and other cats allows many of them to be less timid and sometimes even friendly with humans. The feral cats are not available for adoption as they often revert to a feral state when removed from their new environment. They will live out the rest of their natural lives here as the Richmond Animal Protection Society is a "no-kill" shelter.

how would you be knowing its a stinky place? cats, even feral, are clean. they make stuff to nutrulize stink. and anyone who takes care of ferals is an angel. they are the orphans of america and rednecks who put them out or leave them behind

Managed colonies are healthier and happier and the colony slowly wanes down. I feed a feral russian blue I call Blue Beard he is 10 years old now and is in very good health. Besides these cats are in rescue so their not out in the elements. People say all the ferals should be in rescue but reality most rescues are full.

If everyone just did as Bob Barker has always said,"get your cat spayed or neutered", we wouldn't have the need for feral cat refuges!(great thing that you do, by the way)

they have a full medical attention from two full time animal health care workers and support from local vets. as humans i feel we are obligated to care for any creatures that are homeless through our actions as a species, if only to allow them to live out their lives in comfort feeling loved. someone's gotta do it. i too apologize for being snarky but seriously get your facts straight first before you dig in. :P

first, i apologize; obviously we all feel really strongly one way or another. it wasn't my intent to appear to be flaming anyone. no animal should be miserable. but, how does it help them if we feed them, keep them in diseased situations?

Can we put you and the homeless out of your misery instead? The kitties can't get out and they are cuddly and nice and sweet. You on the other hand are just an internet flamer with nothing to do but try and irritate others.

Yesterday, we drove and saw an orange tabby like the one you have in the vid. One hour later, we see the cat dead--hit by someone. The cat was feral and surely "managed" by a cat lover like you. If you really care, put them down out of their misery.

Ok--a friend sees a feral cat trapped under some PVC pipes. She calls the cops, they come & get the cat, get bitten as well, cop gets rabies shots, cat gets quarantined...did my friend want the cat?? NO. Cat got gassed. Why bother? Your sentiment is misplaced.

I guess it's a good thing we take them out of any natural habitat and away from native wildlife then, huh?
