Galveston is the home of a controversial and little-known trap-neuter-release program known as St. Francis Gulf Coast Feline Rescue. About two years ago, a feral cat had a litter of kittens under Brenda Lee's island house. Lee waited for the kittens to mature and took them and their mother to the animal shelter, she said. "About a week later, I saw the mother back again," Lee said. Lee, who had heard stories about cats that walked thousands of miles to return home, thought the feline had escaped and instinctively returned to its territory. She captured the cat again and returned it to the Galveston Island Humane Society. That's when shelter staff informed her that the cat likely would return. The cat, which Lee has since named "Frightful," is one of thousands that have been sterilized, earmarked and returned to colonies on the island through a controversial and little-known trap-neuter-release program going by the name of St. Francis Gulf Coast Feline Rescue.

PEOPLE kill more birds than cats because PEOPLE destroy natural habitats of birds and all other animals. If bird lovers wants to save endangered birds, maybe they should stop clear cutting all of the land and building their big homes on it. It's real easy to blame others (seems that's all people do these days, blame others for everything bad that happens), but why not point the finger at the real reason hundreds of species of animals are endangered and extinct every year, PEOPLE OVERPOPULATION. Wake up people, stop blaming others for what you yourself are doing, destroying this planet and every living thing on it. Do we really need a Super Walmart not ½ mile down the street from another Walmart? In Humble they are building a Sonic Drive in right next door to a, yep, you guessed it, a Sonic Drive In.
