    I think you mean “free range cats”. The term " stray" refers to homeless cats/dogs.

      True, but neither is acceptable (on the Americas at least, and most other places).

        Really? There are such huge number of cats in cities like Rome or in turkey generally. My cat roams great outdoors on his vacation in summer

            You wouldn’t understand, this is a cat thing. In 1979 there was a cat activist named ‘Orange Tabby’ who advocated for all the cats in Europe and was a catalyst in creating a Cat Rights Act. Henceforth all cats are eligible for tuna and vacation once a year.

          They’re related to cats from the fertile crescent, so Turkey at least they’re essentially native. The problem with other areas is there’s no native animal that fits the same niche, so they can destroy ecosystems. Many animals have gone extinct largely thanks to the domestic cat.

            I know this but I don’t think society has yet reached a level of awareness where it is deemed not acceptable.

            Online some few people been advocating it on various niche forums, some random podcast on the radio comes and goes but generally no one gives two fucks let alone some active non acceptance.

            Fireworks are in that place if we talk about bird law
            there is growing non acceptance for fireworks
