Sa Pobla: Escaped Shepherd Dogs Kill Several Cats — Who Takes Responsibility?

Answer

Why do stray cat colonies need more protection in Mallorca?

Stray cat colonies in Mallorca can be especially vulnerable when dogs roam freely or when there is no structured care program. Neutering, feeding plans and local monitoring help reduce the number of cats at risk and make colonies easier to manage. Without that support, incidents like the one in Sa Pobla can leave neighbourhoods feeling unsafe and unprotected.
