Poll: Man traps cats in backyard to save his birds
Morning neighbours,
Phil Evan's anti-cat tactics are proving to be a divisive topic with people voicing strong opinions on both sides of the debate.
Evans has taken to trapping cats in his backyard, soaking them then shooting them off his property with a hose jet so they don't return.
What's your take on other people's cats roaming through backyards? Is Evans justified in protecting his property? And do you think something needs to be done at council level to address the issue?
