Flood of cats in the Wartburg district: mandatory castration should help!
November 12, 2025 brings new challenges for animal lovers in the Wartburg district in Thuringia. A burning problem is the overpopulation of cats, which is increasingly exceeding the capacity of animal shelters. Animal rights activists have reached their limits, and the only solution now seems to be castration. Thuringia24 reports that the main cause of the high number of kittens are outdoor cats. Many owners allow their animals to roam without castration or identification, which leads to uncontrolled reproduction.
A single pair of cats can produce dozens of offspring within a few years, further exacerbating the situation. Mother cats usually give birth twice a year, which causes the population to increase rapidly. With the new cat protection regulations, which came into force on October 15, 2025, there are now clear guidelines for cat owners. They have to have their outdoor cats neutered and marked in order to counteract the misery of the free-living cats.

The current method of selective trapping and castration has proven to be inadequate. The new regulation is intended not only to relieve the burden on animal shelters and volunteers, but also to raise awareness among cat owners and to take responsibility for their animals. So there is one goal that is very clear: to reduce suffering and curb the proliferation.
In addition to the measures in Thuringia, those interested could also benefit from innovative features that make it easier to organize emails. How Gmail shows, customizable tabs provide a quick overview of what's happening, while Hangouts enables conversations with images, emojis and group video calls. A practical additional benefit: 15 GB of free storage space in Gmail, Google Drive and Google Photos, which allows you not to delete emails for the cat protection discussion.
