Feral cats, Jonathan Beaton, and La Bonne "Bueche" Bistro in City of Lake Worth

CBS12/WPEC's Jonathan Beaton did a story about feral cats in the City of Lake Worth. It's no longer criminals 'overrunning' the streets, now the cats have taken over. Sad to report there's no video of the story on our local TV news station. Here's an excerpt:
     A Palm Beach County community has a big problem, feral cats, overrunning its neighborhood streets. [emphasis added]
     CBS 12 is investigating and learned the town of Lake Worth’s feline frenzy could soon be getting worse before it gets better.
     Up and down the lettered streets, through backyards and alleys, CBS 12 spotted dozens upon dozens of feral cats.
For the time being the cats are keeping to the lettered streets. Are the dogs controlling the numbered streets? Carving the city up into territories?

Note below Jonathan Beaton refers to "La Bonne Bueche Bistro". Of course, we all know it as La Bonne Bouche Bistro. And the chef has an accent in his name. Here's another excerpt:
     Eric Regnier [sic, Régnier] has owned La Bonne Bueche [sic] Bistro in downtown Lake Worth for years, telling CBS 12 cats coming to his door every morning is nothing new, saying he enjoys seeing the friendly felines but understands more needs to be done to help control the population. 
     “We’ll have eight, four, five sometimes, coming right on up to me every day,” said Eric Regnier [sic].
