Feral cats

[edit]

I don't really understand the correlation between feral cats and working cats. I don't know if feral cats can become working cats, and there seems to be no connection stated in the article. I'm hesitant to edit the feral cats section to add citations because I'm not even sure if the section should even exist in its current state. Is there any way for the section to be somehow retrofitted to connect to the topic of working cats as a whole, or do feral cats in general not have anything to do with working cats?

This page is honestly a bit of a mess, but most 'working cats' ie mousers, barn cats are semiferal or feral. Cats aren't selectively bred and raised to be working animals the way dogs are, so there aren't barn cat breeders. I'm going to try cleaning this page up a bit as it's incredibly unbalanced and the language is a bit casual. Minty420 (talk) 08:59, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I do also agree that feral cats should be a separate page. It's confusing to have a section about them here that's mostly unrelated to the page topic. Minty420 (talk) 09:02, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
