All Points: It’s ‘kitten season’

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals says we’re in “kitten season,” when spring’s longer days and warmer weather bring litter after litter from feral cats.

Animal shelters are under pressure to deal with the influx.

Most feral cats don’t survive past six months, PETA says, but female kittens can become mothers as young as 4 months and males can become fathers at 5 months.

Some city-run shelters have trap-neuter-release policies for feral cats, and others euthanize them. What’s your opinion on these wild urban animals and your city’s policy?
