'The Australian Government plans to kill over 2 million cats, with a $3.6m fund established to wipe colony cats off the face of the earth.
This high risk initiative includes a number of cat eradication programs including baiting, shooting, dogs, traps and nearly every method of killing known.'
If you object to this please consider contacting your local Australian embassy or consulate (or, if you're Australian, your local authorities) and suggest that the money could be better and more humanely spent on TNR or other programmes. Stiff penalties for those who abandon pets would be useful, too.
There are also many petitions online including this one: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/303/543/792/catastrophe-demand-successful-cat-management-in-australia/#sign
