The SPCA of Elizabeth City wants to cut the holding time at the shelter for feral cats (those are the wild ones that have never been domesticated) from five to three days. At the end of that period, the cats would be put to sleep. The problem is that the feral cat population is exploding. Also, these cats, which typically don’t get vaccinations for rabies, can become a health problem.
Cutting the holding time looks like it may be the right step, although many cat-lovers may feel differently. Tell us what you think.
