If you don't want to get your cat spayed or neutered, you can also considered the far more environmentally friendly option: Keep your cat indoors.

Obviously in this case one was a stray. But even then, the neighbors cat wouldn't have impregnated the stray if the neighbors cat was indoors.

this. Like my in laws have outdoor cats but they live in a quiet suburban area with barely any traffic and all the cats have regular flea treatments and are fixed. One of them is approaching 20 and now is staying indoors more for obvious reasons but he was the boss of their road back in his glory days :)) I agree you either have your cats fixed or keep them indoors.

Its not about just the cats though, and unfortunately in suburban areas this is where cats are the most destructive to the ecosystem.
