Rather than feed the «thin»
cats, socialize the kittens, and neuter and release the true «ferals,» they were
killed out
of convenience and often the very day they were taken in.
Euthanasia is defined as the mercy
killing of a suffering being, not imposed death for purposes
of convenience or concern about possible future consequences.The American Association
of Feline Practitioners recommends against routine euthanasia
of healthy FeLV and FIV positive
cats.
