More scientific evidence has surfaced to show that while mittens may be your sweet angel, letting her roam outside is also a big threat to biodiversity.

    Nature does its thing.

    You know how pooping is natural, but we get sick if we poop where we eat?

    Cats’ instinctual predatory behavior = natural.

    Invasive predators = serious and unnatural threat to ecosystems.

    …so I won’t hear that line if I catch you taking a dump in my kitchen right 😄

        At least I’ll end my session here feeling like I got a good word in for the birds, even if I have to watch where I step 💩😉

          Sure, take that win, though I’m still 95% certain that my cat will never catch one with his limitations. And if he does, the only birds in this area are non-native transplants, and therefore invasives, so he’d be doing a service.

              Oh shit no, we have so many cat colonies with booming feral populations as it is all over the place. Which is part of the absurdity. My cat will likely kill nothing while going outside to lay in the sun and go pee, while there’s hundreds of outdoor ferals fed daily by volunteers, because the community has decided to be humane and not mass euthanize, only mass spay and neutering when they can be rounded up. The main threat to our native birds are mosquitoes (edit:), which is mostly in the deep uninhabited valleys where people and cats don’t go anyway.
