Thanks to all who replied to my post.
I suppose by definition my cat was running free at the time. However 90% of our yard is fenced for deer and he nomally would be in the rear yard. This time he was attracted by the bait and went out to the front and around the fence. We live some distance from a road and those related dangers so I felt we were providing a safe haven for our pets.
If I can broaden my perspective enough to see that he may have had a right to trap the cats, I can't see what would give him the right to kill or abandom them. Maybe I'm wrong but I can't see how that can be legal.
