There's nothing humane about drowning or asphyxiating animals. It's about the least pleasant way to die.

HI,
If a cat is getting into your run it's only a matter of time before a racoon or such gets in there. Killing the cats only delays the inevitable if you have chickens for any time period.
The first solution is to fix your run to keep out predators. Cats are predators. If cats can get in, it's NOT predator proof. If you in fact don't want to kill the cats then fix the run and close the door at night to keep them safe from all predators.
If you want approval to kill the cats then explain why this is not feasible. My radar says you want agreement and not ideas for how to do it.
If you want to kill the cats then kill them humanely. Trap and shoot, drown or asphixiate. Don't poison. There aren't many laws that protect cats except anti torture laws you may or may not have in your state.
Seriously.
