A Modest Proposal
November 21, 2009 | 09:21 AM

Set up a central receiving facility in every district of the island and pay a $1.00 bounty on every cat turned in, either dead or alive. The cost could be offset by using the cats as raw material for renewable energy such as bio-fuel or as compost. This would not only serve to put a dent in the feral cat population but also to potentially create jobs. And those jobs would be friendly to the environment.

Given the current economic climate there are a lot of people out there that would appreciate the extra cash in their pockets. Put some profit motivation behind this problem and it could solve itself.
