UPDATE ON WISCONSIN:

Outcome

Despite the collective efforts of feral cat activists, the WI Conservation Congress approved Question 62. Less than .02 percent of all Wisconsin residents—the people who would have to live with legalized, indiscriminate killing of outdoor cats— attended the meetings. It is our belief that most people simply could not imagine such an inhumane proposal being taken seriously.

Although Question 62 was approved, hunting cats is not legal in Wisconsin. Because the issue still has to survive several other votes, we still have time to protect the cats!
