There's an old saw that says you can divide the world into two groups of people: cat-lovers and cat-haters. Those two factions are going head-to-head in Wisconsin over a proposal to allow cat hunting. The idea has generated plenty of controversy since it was first proposed by a LaCrosse firefighter, who was tired of watching cats attack songbirds in his backyard.

"We hear from farmers and property owners of all kinds that they have been trying fatal means to manage the population, and it simply doesn't work," says Fry. "Because even if a couple survive, you'll have a large number of cats in no time."

Fry says over a seven-year period, one female cat and her offspring can produce as many as 420,000 additional animals.

That's just one of the reasons Jerome Hundt says he'll vote in favor of Wisconsin proposal at Monday's meeting. He's an avid hunter and fisherman who lives in the tiny town of Cashton, Wisconsin. He says he's tired of seeing so many cats malnourished and suffering. He also says in the wild, cats are able predators.

"I have seen them moving one foot at a time. They become very skilled at it," says Hundt. "I have never shot cats myself either in the woods, but I certainly have been tempted to."
