U.S. streets could soon be overrun with cats if communities fail to get a handle on growing feline populations, a veterinary medicine researcher says.Just imagine the cumulative furballs clogging our streets.
The problem is growing numbers of not just strays, but also other free-roaming pet cats. The strays are likely to go unneutered or unspayed, and therefore to reproduce like mad.
On top of that, though, more than 38 million households own an estimated 88 million cats — that's about one cat for every 3.5 Americans.
Those that aren't "fixed" often can and do still wander freely outdoors or get lost and make kittens.
