     Here here.  I was wondering when people would stop saying "Aww, more 
kittens, how cute!" and give Ivy the earful she so desperately deserves.  I 
know it has been stated before, but it will be repeated until people finally 
clue in.  It's not a matter of opinion that there is a population problem, 
and it's not a matter of opinion that thousands of cats are put down every 
year.
     The only opinion here is whether or not Ivy believes that it matters 
that cats die every day because of people like her.
... I used to be a cynic, but I don't believe in that crap any more.
