My grandmother has a large parcel of land, overgrown farm that the rabbits used to strive in. A couple years ago it was very likely that if you stood still you could see at least 2 rabbits at any given moment, the tracks were everywhere..
Last year my son and I went out and brought one home for dinner, this summer we took his re-curve out just for fun, but we noticed there were substantially fewer rabbit tracks and the presence of cat tracks.
Yesterday I went out to harvest another rabbit, there were absolutely no signs of rabbits in the snow, and the cat tracks were everywhere! I caught a glimpse of the black house cat and he was far from domesticated.
What should I do with this cat? I am a capable live trapper but then to relocate it would just transmit the problem.. This cat has depleted the whole population of rabbits.

buy a few 220 traps. They do the killing for you so you do not have to do the killing. This helps some people.I shoot andthem trap them. I allso do the same for dogs in some places. If you want rabbits and birds you cant have dogs and cats in the same spots.
Slightly O/T stray cat
Fair enough.
