Almost every community has feral cats, animals too poorly socialized to be handled who cannot be placed into typical pet homes. In many of these communities, feral cats are seen to pose public-health, animal-welfare, nuisance-animal, or other problems. Veterinarian Margaret R. Slater offers a comprehensive, compassionate review of the issues surrounding feral cats and of solutions to feral cat problems in communities large and small. She also provides a blueprint to veterinarians, feral cat caretakers, animal shelters, and public agencies for finding common ground in their approach to feral cats. Community Approaches to Feral Cats is a handbook for action, a great resource, and a "must have" for anyone interested in stray, feral, and unowned cats.
