Please sign this petition save the feral/stray cats in New Jersey
This is definitely not sex work related, but I came across this article and I am pretty sick to my stomach, they want to pass a law in new jersey to hunt and kill feral cats. feral cats were once house cats, that were abandoned or ran away from home and now live wildly in the streets across the world. I sometimes foster cats and kittens until they are adopted. They have an online petition going on right now to stop this law from being active.
The TNR Method is what most of the cat rescue groups believe to be humane where they will trap cats and kittens, have them spayed and neutered , attempt to socialize the kittens and the tame cats for adoption to forever homes and if they are not they put them back in the colony they found them so they the cats in that area will re-accept them.
There is a current documentary going on about this topic called Cat City. a clip of it is on youtube. I have a copy of the DVD, and I volunteer with the Annex Cat Rescue, Urban Cat Relief, and Toronto Cat Rescue and sometimes the Toronto Humane Society
.

Sponsored by: The Animal Rescue Site
New Jersey political leaders are considering an initiative that would allow hunters to begin hunting and shooting feral cats. Current New Jersey animal control programs utilize the Trap-Neuter-Return method— a practice in which feral cats are trapped, taken to be fixed, and then re-released back into the wild. This program has profoundly reduced the number of homeless cats in the state.
But now officials in New Jersey are seeking to overturn this program to allow hunters to start hunting these poor stray animals.
This is no way to control an animal population — it's inhumane and promotes unnecessary violence. Sign the petition asking the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection Commissioner Bob Martin to block the legalization of this new initiative and to continue to support the TNR method.

Urban myth I would think. Though there is nothing about it on Snoops.
However a check with this site: http://www.njleg.state.nj.us/bills/BillsByKeyword.asp
Allows anyone to check, by numerous ways including keywords, any NJ legislative bill currently under consideration or passed into law.
Using "cats" as a keyword produces only four bills currently under consideration. None of which have to do with hunting them. Checking for "hunting" produces nothing have to do with cats. Checking for "cats and hunting" produces zero results.
The conclusion would be that the NJ legislature currently has no bill under consideration to legalize the hunting of cats.

Not on this site. It is the official site of the NJ State Legislature and its specific function is to provide the public with access to ALL bills in committee or coming up on either the floor of the Assembly or Senate for a vote.
All bills passed into law are documented as well.
