:kitty-cri-screm:
try not to re-litigate this, but if you think anonymously threatening to murder someone else's animal is cool and fine, you can fuck off
Further down in the thread lots of people are agreeing that they would shoot the cat :ohnoes:
Domestic cats that regularly go outside have rather large territories they'll patrol. The transition from housecat to stray to feral comes with pretty distinct physiological changes too, cats are only 'cute' when theyre inside and figuratively defanged, killer instincts relegated to attacking hair bands and odd socks.
The story might be different elsewhere, but aus straight up doesn't have a lot of predators, so cats can readily escape and find themselves comfortably at the top of the food chain, to the horror of our marsupial brethren
Do you have any source for that "Domestic cats that regularly go outside have rather large territories they’ll patrol"?
There are a few domesticated cats in my suburban-ass area that were abandoned and they barely wander the block with the exception of the one which a neighbor has taken in on a part time basis. She pretty much never seems to go further than their yard and my yard. This situation very well could be an outlier.
