Feral Feline Photography

This Monochrome Cat Photography Series is Strikingly Haunting

— June 25, 2014 — Lifestyle
With the recent cat phenomena taking over the Internet, it is about time that a serious and artistic depiction of these creatures surfaced just like this cat photography series.

Captured by Wisconsin-based photographer Jason Houge, this cat photography series focuses on feral cats that the photographer and his girlfriend have been feeding and caring for or cats from the their local humane society Cats Anonymous.

Feral cats are know for their rampant reproduction habits that cause issues to either the home, organization or area hosting these cats. “It’s likely most people have heard stories of hoarders who live with hundreds of cats. It only takes two intact cats and two or three years to get to that point,” says Houge.

Houge states that there are even some populations where cats outnumber humans like the Japanese island of Tashirojima.
Trend Themes
1. Feral Cat Care - Trend towards new methods of feral cat care for photographers like Jason Houge to capture artistic pictures without the harm of rampant reproduction habits.
2. Artistic Pet Photography - Growing appreciation and professional interest for creative pet photography as entrepreneur photographers diversify their portfolios.
3. Environmental Conservation - Growing recognition of the detrimental effect of feral cat populations on ecosystems leading to opportunities for entrepreneurs in the environmental conservation industry.
Industry Implications

2. Pet Care - New opportunities to breed, train and care for pets as more people get interested in artistic ways to showcase their pets.
3. Environmental Conservation - Opportunities to develop innovative and humane ways of controlling feral cat populations in sensitive ecosystems, while protecting the natural habitat and wildlife that live there.
