I have made it clear to him that I expect the remainder to be neutured and spayed. All I can do is my part...

i am sure this post will anger a few people, and i respect that some find the idea of killing an animal repulsive.
all i ask is that, if you reply, you concentrate more on what you think of hunting and culling, rather than posting insults that i am a brute etc.
unfortunately it is a sad fact of life, that sometimes it is necessary to kill one or many animals to make sure things stay in balance.

I realize that this is not technically my problem. But, if I don't do this, it will not get done, and the cats will slowly die of starvation.
As far as homing them, unless I can do it personally (i.e. they don't have to go to a shelter) then I would rather kill them. There are already way too many cats in shelters etc, and they are holed up in a cage.
I know I would prefer to die than be holed up in prison the rest of my life. Just my humble opinion.

for those of you who weren't good jws, or weren't raised in the troof, what kind of bad things did you do in high school?.
one thing that i did sticks out in my mind above all the crap i did.
there was this one kid who was marked as the loser.

I personally have yet to see the state that they are in, and whether it would be possible to home them.
To be honest, I am a cat lover. We have three cats now in our house, and I would be gutted if anything happened to them. I will not enjoy doing this by any means, but I know it has to be done for the wellbeing of the rest of the family.
And yep, I have made the point that they should be spayed and neutured, and will be sure to make it clear that I am not gonna do this for him every time.

D'oh! Trust me to cross post my little joke just as you post that you are against it Stef...
I am quite open to discussion... as this is a forum (designed to discuss)... My point with the above request is that we focus on the facts of killing and culling rather than my moral standards.
Thanks either way though Stefanie, and I respect your opinion.

I am with you guys on this. I believe he has gotten rid of one or two (to other local farmers), but most of them already have mousers and have the same problem. As far as getting them fixed, I also agree on that too... but what is done is done, and I have recommended that to him before, but he never got around to it.
I am already surprised at the responses, I thought for sure someone would have blindly disagreed by now.

Unfortunately it is a sad fact of life, that sometimes it is necessary to kill one or many animals to make sure things stay in balance. For example, there are hundreds of fatal deer related accidents in the States each year... thousands of injuries. If there was no hunting season, then this number could easily have doubled. At what cost? Do you not think it is better to kill a few thousand deer each year and eat the meat (put it to good use), rather than allow these deer to cause traffic accidents which cost lives (and the deer ends up dead anyway)?
I have a friend that owns a farm, and he had a couple of mousing cats. They lived outside and did their job well. The problem is, cats tend to procreate, and now there are over 20 cats living in this barn. Now there are so many cats around, there is quite a shortage of vermin to eat, so they are starving. Feeding 25 cats outside is neither financially efficient, or practical. So, he has asked me to go out there and kill some of the cats for him (I guess he doesn't have the balls).
I personally don't have a problem with doing this, as it will ultimately make the ones I leave healthier, as they will have more food to eat etc., and the last thing the pet shelters need is 20 un-immunized cats and kittens that have been living on a farm.
Anyhow.... What are your views and opinions?

I took a four pack of beers (20oz) in to school one day... as we had a concert to play (was 16 at the time). I lied to 2 teachers and managed to skive off for about half the day, and got drunk. By the time the concert rolled around, I had had time to go home, shower, change etc. So I did a school concert with quite a buzz.
