[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We need more cats. [/quote] I agree with you, but the crazy bird people would have a fit. [/quote] I live in a neighborhood with a lot of outdoor cats and I can assure you this is not true. The rat-attracting/sustaining factor from people feeding cats outside far, far outweighs any predator affect. [b]The houses with the outdoor cats are the ones with the most rats.[/b] [/quote] dang[/quote] It probably depends on the neighborhood and how well neighbors control the problem together, and the garbage disposal and removal. I doubt that a few cat food dishes left outside would create huge out of control rat issue. Human garbage is likely a better source for the rats than competition for cat kibble with their natural predator. It might also depend on access to sewers or other areas where rats can hide and breed. There is more going on than just garbage or cat food.[/quote]
