    I’m not saying they are not killing birds, or mice, or small preys in general. I know they hunt. What I’m saying is that cats are invasive only in places they never where before human brought them (like Australia or small islands). In continental Eurasia, they have always been there, and the environment is adapted to their presence and will not significantly suffer, not more than any other predator.

        300 dead cats in 20 years in 18 countries? I’m guessing that house fires kill more cats than that.

        I don’t knoe why people are obsesse with keeping cats inside. In a less urbanized area, they are perfectly safe staying outside.

            I understand the concerns in the USA, but where I live, burd flu seems to be pretty much a non-problem for now because of very strict controla and low volume of aviary farming.

              you do you mate. but honestly chiming in as if the rest of the world shouldn’t keep their cats inside is silly when the concerns - predation - and spreading bird flu around are actual genuine issues.

              no one can make you care. doesn’t mean I won’t keep spreading the word so others benefit from the knowledge.
