I don't remember cat skins on TM, but don't really have a problem with the concept so long as they were feral cats that needed to be culled and were killed humanely, then they're the same as possums. DH is always joking that our guy would make a good hat (Magoo - that's a use for your glove leftovers) but don't worry Oh_hunnihunni, he is safe. You only have to see them interact to know they idolise each other.
Thinking of feral cats, I knew a farmer who had a big problem on the farm and had to cull the excess. They kept some, all neutered etc before being re-released, and feel they now have the right balance of rodent control versus risk to birds. The cats are still wild, but do take the food that's put out for them.The bird life came back and the farm now has a healthy wildlife environment.
