Is this political? Is it sexual pathology?
No… its about cats.
“my neighbor’s cat is killing my birds” - the greatest thread in the history of .chat, locked by a moderator after 12,239 pages of heated debate
I’m going to add to this struggle session. I saw two removed posts so went to the modlog to see what they were. One for advocating killing of pets, that makes sense don’t be like a cop and kill peoples pets. One for advocating killing of feral cats, I do not agree with this being removed.
Feral cats threaten the survival of over 100 native species in Australia. They have caused the extinction of some ground-dwelling birds and small to medium-sized mammals
You can request baits to kill feral cats. Australia also has issues with wild horses. People studying the effects they have on small mammals get harassed for saying they are destructive, and those people threaten to release more horses.
Invasive species control is important.
outdoor cats have half the life expectancy of indoor cats
This argument never works for those people because they already value the lives of the animals the cat is killing so little that they won’t change.
A reduction and threat to their own pet’s lifespan is chalked up to “nature” and the experience being better for their cat than staying indoors.
Keep your cats inside, fix em, treat them for parasites and you’re good. Leave the rest up to nature. An aside, fuck carpenter bees. Obnoxious pricks.
