DATELINE: MARSHFIELD, MA AND MADISON, WI…In light of a recent proposal made to the Wisconsin Conservation Congress that would allow small game hunters across the state to shoot feral cats, animal activists at the direct marketer and online retail company Midnight Pass are encouraging folks not to support the proposal and seek a safer, more humane alternative.

Instead of considering formerly domesticated cats “fair game”, Midnight Pass® is urging people to gently capture feral cats using “Have A Heart” type traps and bring them to the local Humane Society, Animal Rescue League or veterinarian for spaying or neutering. The first ten people to adopt a spayed or neutered cat will receive a free Kittywalk® Enclosure to keep their new cat safe and prevent it from roaming. Contact Midnight Pass directly at SaveCats@MidnightPass.com for details.

Midnight Pass favors spaying and neutering education and seeks to help reduce the feral cat population and protect the small mammal population by safely containing felines with Kittywalk® enclosures.

According to Brad White, president of Midnight Pass, “Yes, there are two to three million feral cat living in Wisconsin, but we strongly oppose the ruthless hunting of a domesticated animal that has turned wild due to irresponsible field management of the overpopulation. We urge people to use safe capture alternatives and bring these cats to the local humane society or vet. For indoor and outdoor cat owners who are concerned about their cat’s safety, Kittywalk enclosures are the ideal way to keep kitty happy and secure at home.”

The company’s innovative Kittywalk products are roomy portable enclosures that allow indoor cats to enjoy the great outdoors without the risk of roaming or injury. Even for urban pet owners with limited space, the Kittywalk’s open net construction provides maximum visibility and ventilation for your pet and plenty of room for them to romp in the sun, chase bugs, watch birds or enjoy a fresh air catnap. Kittywalk products will not harm grass or patio brick and is easily moved from place to place (lightweight) when it comes time to mow the lawn or a change of scenery is desired. Use anywhere on all surfaces, lawn, wood or stone. Check them out at www.Kittywalk.com.

To receive a free Kittywalk Enclosure, owners who have adopted a spayed or neutered cat through the local Humane Society or Animal Rescue League should contact Midnight Pass (Toll Free) 877-844-GIFT (4438) or through the Kittywalk website www.Kittywalk.com.
