The last few years has brought an increase in bans on the private ownership of wild and exotic cats in the USA. What most legislators or even the general public doesn't realize is that the majority of wildcats and their hybrids are small and don't pose any more threat or need for recapture equipment than the feral cats.
To the average person or most animal control officers, many are indistinguishable from an alley cat. The current trend is "fear of the unknown"; if it sounds exotic, then it needs to be banned. We are hoping to reverse this trend with this educational flyer on wild and exotic cats.
