Australia wants to force cats to stay inside or give them a curfew because they are murdering so many other animals they are a threat to the country's biodiversity

Cats are present in 99.9% of all land in Australia and kill about two billion other animals a year. That makes them Australia's most invasive species.

    There’s outbreaks of toxoplasmosis in aquatic/marine life that is threatening endangered species such as sea otters, seals, sea lions, and dolphins.

    Letting cats run free and thus allowing them to shit near waterways poses a significant threat to aquatic and marine life.

    humans kill so many animals for food, there is nothing wrong with this especially if they are a threat to biodiversity.

    cats and dogs shouldn’t get special treatment

    Before hexbear: Caging cats indoors is animal abuse and ought not to be tolerated, since it is specicist!

    After hexbear: Allowing cats - dangerous outdoor predators - outside ought not to be tolerated, it is animal abuse, murder and specicist!

    Honestly try not to buy animals, okay?

      There’s a middle ground between caging and letting cats run outside where they’re likely to be hurt.

        (the middle ground is to not own a cat)

        It isn’t about the cats getting hurt though (it is about them killing) and flats aren’t large enough to be considered acceptable housing for cats in my opinion.

          It isn’t about the cats getting hurt though

          Maybe not to you, but I’m pretty unhappy that cats are getting hit by cars and attacked by large carnivores.
