Abstract: Predation by feral cats (Felis catus) is considered to be the most significant factor in Australia's recent mammal extinctions, and is regarded as the factor currently affecting the largest number of threatened and near threatened mammal taxa in Australia (Woinarski et al. 2014). Feral cats further threaten livestock, wildlife and human health through the spread of diseases such as toxoplasmosis and sarcocystosis (Dubey 2010; Dubey et al. 2015).
