"At the high point I believe we had 19 cats last year," said the Wisconsin resident. "They just started coming around more and more." These cats aren't house pets. They're free-roaming felines called " feral cats search )" because they live in the wild. And they're at the center of a major catfight in Wisconsin. A University of Wisconsin study suggests there are 1.4 million of these cats in Wisconsin alone and that they kill nearly 8 million birds each year. Next month, a state-backed group called the Conservation Congress search ) will vote on a proposal to take wild cats off the protected species list to help control the feral population. That would mean people would be free to shoot and kill the animals known as feral cats that roam the wild. But opponents of the proposal say it's the wrong way to address the problem.

Main Menu Establishing Territory Territorial disputes are at the root of many conflicts between felines, wild or domestic. Altercations between domestics are far more common than confrontations in the wild because of the artificially dense environments of the cities and suburbs where most cats reside. Sexually intact males are involved in the greatest number of disputes, but all cats, wild or domestic, male or female, may become embroiled in conflicts.

25. Animal Planet :: Cat Guide -- Behavior -- Marking
Since direct contact among felines in the wild seldom occurs, All felines, wild or domestic, will mark territory for themselves, no matter how small.
http://animal.discovery.com/guides/cats/behavior/marking.html
September 21, 2005 Marking Since direct contact among felines in the wild seldom occurs, they must rely almost entirely on indirect methods of transmitting messages. Through a series of scent and visual markers, cats post their own distinctive "Keep Out" signs or "Welcome" mats to announce their own happy hunting and breeding grounds. Potential trespassers coming across such a marker must retreat or enter at their own risk. Outdoors in rural areas, the suburbs or the urban jungle, domestic cats mark territory in much the same way. All felines, wild or domestic, will mark territory for themselves, no matter how small. The size of the territory is dictated primarily by the availability of food. Where it's scarce, cats must stake out large tracts to satisfy their appetites. Where it's plentiful, a small territory will do. Social factors, however, also play a role in territory size. Sexually intact males will roam territories up to 10 times larger than those of their female counterparts in order to find mates. Even neutered domestic males exhibit some degree of the greater wanderlust demonstrated by males in the wild. More Information Marking Fighting Over Turf Posturing Aggressive Fighting ... Main Menu

There are more than 500 million domestic cats in the world, with 33 different breeds, which is too many to list. More than 35,000 kittens are born in the US alone each year, which is why it's important to spay or neuter your cat (get it fixed so it can't have kittens.) Did you know that 25 percent of cat owners blow dry their cat after a bath? Brief History
Cats first became pets in Egypt around 4000 BC but they had to work for their livelihood by getting rid of rodents and unwanted waste. When these beloved pets died, owners shaved off their eyebrows and then mummified their cat so it could be buried with them when they died. The goddess of love and fertility in Egypt was a cat named Bastet. During the 15th century, cats weren't considered pets and the Pope considerd all cat lovers to be witches - and they were burned. Black cats are now considered symbols of luck by Europeans. Over time, several wild species became domestic A Mackarel Tabby Named Spike.

    Games Bobcat Simulation T HE P REDITOR Felines are remarkable hunters, each with its own special abilities. There are many similarities among the big cats and also many differences. Senses
    The hearing and sight of a cat are used when hunting. Their sense of smell, although very good, is used more in identification. The sight of a cat is amazing; a cat can see movement very far away and can see exceptionally well at night. The hearing of a cat is very accurate and sensitive. Cats can hear high pitched sounds that are made by small rodents and can tell the exact direction from which the subtle sounds come from. Attacking Prey
    Most cats do not hunt in the open. The cheetah and the lion often hunt in the open. A silent stalk begins when the prey is spotted. When the cat gets close enough to the quarry, it will leap for the prey and try and bite on the nape of the neck. If it does not catch it on the first leap, a short pursuit will be made in attempt to catch the animal. If unsuccessful in the first few hundred yards, then cat will give up. If a catch is made, most cats will hide their catch, eat a bit, then come back to it later. Some cats such as the cheetah need to eat as much as possible before scavengers come to steal its food because it does not have the strength to carry the large animal or bring it up in a tree like a leopard. C ATS I NTERACTING Cats have interacted with both other cats and with humans. Here I will describe the process of reproduction and touch on the history of domesticating, or
