No Feeding Zone
Bleach, WD-40, Borax, fungicides, ammonia, and insecticides—these are all common methods to preserve pumpkins until #Halloween. ☠️ If you care about #wildlife then please don't feed them your leftover pumpkins! Compost pumpkins instead. 🎃 #NationalPumpkinDay

It’s #WorldMigratoryBirdDay! 🐦 #Birds face many dangers on their migration, and one danger they face too often is free-roaming cats. Create #SharedSpaces by keeping #CatsIndoors, in catios, or on a leash and harness to help birds survive their migrations. 🏠🐈

It's the time of year when the bad idea of feeding #pumpkins to wildlife resurfaces. Feeding causes unnatural crowding, human-animal conflicts, spreads disease, and makes #wildlife vulnerable to predators like outdoor cats. Please compost pumpkins instead. 🎃

Using working cats for rat control is a cheap PR stunt for soulless corporations that doesn't solve the rat problem and endangers the cats. This #cat would not be missing if he had been kept indoors. #CatsIndoors

‼️ Hawaiʻi County has passed Bill 51, banning feeding of feral & stray animals on public lands starting Jan 1, 2026.

🔴 This protects fragile ecosystems + endangered birds like the Nēnē (fewer than 4,000 left), ‘Alae ke‘oke‘o, and ‘Ua‘u.

On #NationalWildlifeDay it's important to think of endangered #wildlife and their struggle for survival. Free-roaming cats threaten 135 endangered species with extinction. Keeping #CatsIndoors is one way we can help prevent permanent #biodiversity loss.

21 native #birds were killed by feral cats. It is not surprising that these #FeralCats were being fed large bowls of cat food nearby. Feeding feral cats does not stop them from hunting, and this hunting contributes to #biodiversity loss.

Feral cat feeding stations can promote pet abandonment since the constant supply of food and water encourages people to dump unwanted cats. Like this couple that left kittens in the desert, mistakenly thinking it was a feeding site. #NeverFeedFeralCats

Controlling #InvasiveSpecies can have massive benefits for purposes other than #conservation. If controlling invasive species like the European Green Crab in the U.S. were normalized we could have a reliable source of food security.

It's disappointing that the #WorldMigratoryBirdDay animation highlights off-leash dogs as a threat to #birds but ignores free-roaming cats. A simple #CatsIndoors message could have helped bring relief for the 981 #bird species hunted by these cats.

Human activity is driving #biodiversity loss in all species. Human activity causes five drivers of decline, with one driver being #InvasiveSpecies. Releasing pets into the wild contributes significantly to the invasive species driver. #DontLetItLoose!

Feral cats don't control rats. Feral cats are not rat-specific and will gladly eat #wildlife like birds, reptiles, mammals, and amphibians. These "working cat" programs fuel #biodiversity loss and won't solve the rat problem.
