I question the underlying assumption that ones a cat a favor by killing him...oh, sorry...I mean "putting him to sleep." Turn to backward countries that don't have Humane Societies for a simple alternative. In Tangier stray cats fend for themselves. I remember an eccentric old English lady in Tangier. Every morning she went to the fish market and filled a bag with cheap fish and made the rounds of vacant lots and other locales where stray cats congregated. I have seen as many as thirty cats rush up at her approach.
Well, why not? The money now spent on caging and killing cats could maintain actual shelters with food dispensers. of course the cats would have to be neutered and vaccinated for rabies.
