Abstract：
Although free-roaming and feral cat control techniques are often applied in human communities, community engagement is not always considered. A systematic literature review following an update of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA 2020) methodology was conducted to evaluate whether community engagement influences the effectiveness of control techniques, excluding culling, in managing cat populations. The degree of community engagement was estimated based on the number of roles reported during the application of the control technique, which included adoption, trapping, care, and/or education. Education followed by adoption was the determining factor in the decreasing cat populations over time. The limited evaluations of control technique effectiveness, narrow geographical scope, and our simple measure of engagement emphasize the need for more detailed studies. These studies should evaluate the effectiveness of control techniques, while considering community engagement more comprehensively.
摘要：
尽管自由漫游和野猫控制技术经常在人类社区中应用，社区参与并不总是被考虑。在更新了系统评价和荟萃分析的首选报告项目（PRISMA2020）方法之后，进行了系统文献综述，以评估社区参与是否会影响控制技术的有效性。不包括剔除，管理猫种群。社区参与程度是根据控制技术应用期间报告的角色数量来估计的，其中包括收养，诱捕,care,和/或教育。随着时间的推移，教育和收养是猫数量减少的决定因素。对控制技术有效性的有限评估，狭窄的地理范围，我们简单的参与度强调需要更详细的研究。这些研究应该评估控制技术的有效性，同时更全面地考虑社区参与。
