Need advice - stray cats

[ameliaj]

Most vets here keep "safe" traps to loan out. The question is, what to do with them once they are trapped. Here, you can take them to animal control.
We have a once feral cat and he is a big old lazy bones. His fur has gone from coarse to mink coat soft, but it has taken a long time for him to realize he is a family member.
It can be done, but 5 are way too many if they are not neutered or spayed and you will soon have 10 or 15. I wish you luck with your situation. But the cats need to go.

Give a call to the people at Feline Friends of Destin. You're probably outside their usual boundaries, but they may have some good suggestions. Animal control is going to be a death sentence for them, and I'm enough of a cat lover that I'd want to see if there are other options.

I called Feline Friends & they gave me some info. They don't come to SRB - but recommended some one who does. They will trap, neuter & re-release back to you.

I'd be grateful that they won't continue to reproduce, but the 5 that are here are already a nuisance.

Have you considered chasing them away with a garden hose until they start staying away?

I wonder if its that same white cat that sometimes lives under my porch. She hasnt been around lately, which I'm thrilled about, so maybe she found a new crew. Sorry if it is in fact you. Anyone else seen that white cat wandering around the old grove?

Chasing them away with a garden hose, etc is NOT a good idea. Of course most of the bad idea's listed here are coming from a guys mouth. Simply call animal control or talk to the person feeding them and tell her your plan and ask her to take them home to her house if she wants to keep feeding them. I am a huge animal lover and have cats myself. One being a stray I took in that used to kill birds as well. She now lays in my arms and is happy as can be. Instead of complaining about these type of problems, why don't we all help out by getting the stray cats trapped and fixed. We have a huge over population of cats however, all they are doing is trying to find food themselves. Give them a break!

I am not directing this to you by the way but to a few of the responses you received.
