Yep, I love the critters, too, and miss my feral black cat, from the Bay Area, who I named, 'Sylvester' - I've never tried to pet, or feed him, but he has taken refuge in the gazebo on many cold nights, and we blink back and forth a lot.

Victoria is considering a cull of these creatures with nets and bolt guns. Can you imagine killing one of these terrified innocents while it lays trapped under the net? Maybe after they ate up all your garden? Nope. Couldn't care less. They are welcome to my tulips which they love. They are welcome to trample my beds of azaelias and heather. They can make hoofprints on my lawn and wander through my orchard eating the pears and apples. I will always share my property with the creatures that choose to enter. We have rats and deer and ducks and blue herons who eat the fish and frogs out of our man-made pond. We have hawks and owls and eagles and sparrows and swallows and hummingbirds. We have installed bat houses and plant things that attract bees and butterflies. No, you will not see me chasing off the wild ones. They are a gift.
