The Outdoor Cat: Science and Policy from a Global Perspective brings together leading experts to take the measure of contemporary research and science concerning outdoor cats, and to advance the integration of such evidence into better policy that protects cats, birds and other wildlife. For bird advocates and cat advocates, it represents a step forward toward a common goal.

I will be speaking about the ethical implications of managing outdoor cats in a manner that respects the intrinsic value of both the cats and wildlife.
