Do I post that I shoot them on here and ask whether it is right or wrong? Once again, absolutely not. For one, it is in essence self incrimination if shooting cats is illegal in your state. I wish this one would be deleted.
That's a strong point & I'd have to agree it's probably not a good place to be discussing this very real and legitimate problem of feral cats. We also have pets, and the at the same time I totally understand the damage both pets, and feral cats/dogs can and will do to wildlife. I believe this is a topic better discussed with your hunting buddies in private, or your local gun/archery club. This is true, the anti's will use whatever we give them to push their agenda. Not unlike any other group/government etc.
