Almost every community has feral cats, animals too poorly
socialized to be handled and who cannot be placed into typical pet
homes. Veterinarian and professor Margaret R. Slater offers a
comprehensive, compassionate review of the issues surrounding feral
cats and a variety of solutions to feral cat problems in
communities, large and small. She provides to veterinarians, feral
cat caretakers, animal shelters, and public agencies a blueprint
for consensus in their treatment of feral cats. Public Policy
