Gatos silvestres para combater o crescente número dos ratos
Mais gatos nas ruas de Lisboa dum motivo de saúde pública
O programa Patrulha Gato, aprovado pela Câmara de Lisboa arranca este mês. O projeto prevê a recolocação de colónias de gatos silvestres para combater a presença de ratos e ratazanas nos bairros com queixas sobre a presença de roedores. Se este método funcionar, acredita-se que possa ser implementado noutras cidades.
Marisa Quaresma dos Reis dos Animais de Lisboa, a organização que lidera o projeto, afirmou que colocar gatos pela cidade não apenas evitaria a introdução de substâncias químicas e venenos perto de casas e parques infantis, mas também ajudaria a salvar gatos de situações potencialmente ameaçadoras à vida. É possível acolher os gatos, basta fazer um pedido direto à autarquia.
