I feel for him, that's gotta be tough. I took in 10 strays, I can't even imagine having nearly three hundred of them.

I wonder why he didn't do something earlier? I know getting them fixed is expensive (it's going to be around $200 each for the 10 I have) but neither is 28kg a day for food. At least in my case I can keep the girls separated in the house as we slowly afford to get them done.
- Wow, you can get them done for free from charities in the UK.
  
  There's a few places Here in Canada that can do them fairly cheap, but nowhere close to where I live, and they usually have a limit of one cat per year.
before I got a cat I would have said this dude is crazy. But, now, I get it. I too want to save all the kitties
- Last year we lost two cats, and somehow gained three. It would have been more off it could have been.
Cat ladies are no match to this man.
- I bet you there are plenty that are, but either way, if it were a woman this story was about, she would 100% be framed as a "crazy" cat lady, but it's a man, so it's the situation that is "crazy", not him..
  
  That was a joke. I think you are looking for something that's not there.
  
  You're seriously claiming toxoplasmosis gondii is a gendered issue? We need some kind of lemmy award for most bizarre takes.
Just slightly overwhelmed
