However, his decision infuriated his neighbor Opel Barnes, who provided food for cats daily and tried to gain his trust.

‘Everyone who knows me knows my love for animals. I tried for months to work with a person who is coming into the neighborhood and feeding a large group of wild cats in an effort to relocate them, as they are filling their yards with fleas and waste, ‘he said in his testimony to TMZ.

‘I made the wrong choice by throwing rice on the ground (not in the direction of the cats) to startle with the noise and startle them. To the animal-loving companions that I disappointed, I’m sorry, ‘concluded Jason, who had a recurring role as Smith in Sex And The City.

Opel posted a video on Instagram in which it can be heard warning Jason for ‘shooting them for no reason! Do you think I should be reasonable? ‘
