Chicago sets loose 1,000 feral cats as a last-ditch attempt
The City has been having a problem with rats for a long time, which has bothered city officials to control its surging rat population.
In October of last year, pest control company Orkin proclaimed Chicago the rat capital of the United States for the sixth year in a row, depending on the percentage of new rodent treatments performed from September 2019 to August 31, 2020.

GREAT IDEA ALERT!! Rats run wild everywhere and Chicago has been dealing with a rat infestation forever! Orkin just named our beloved city of Chicago the rattiest city for the 6th year in a row!! Cats are superstars at hunting rats. The Tree House Humane Society in Chicago releases feral cats on the regular to keep the rat situation in check.
It is simply responsible to capture feral cats in a safe manner, have them spayed or neutered (clip the ear so you can tell they ve been fixed) and then release them back outside. My wife and I were a part of a program in DC where feral cats who were fixed would be released outside with the purpose of keeping the rat population at bay. The Cats At Work program in Chicago works the same way and provides a safe alternative to rat bait by having a cat that keeps rats from coming around.
