Reply to comment by coldbrew18 in TIFU by getting a new cat and sending my neighbor over the edge. by wastingtimaway

It's cruel to let them outside. Humans feed cats, therefore cats do not actually need food to survive. However cats are little assholes, and they like to kill things

Domestic cats being supported by humans have wiped out billions of birds and mammals each year and are on track to continue to do so until they wipe out entire populations and eventually species.

In nature the cats would die off due to lack of food, but we feed them and keep their numbers artificially inflated.

Are you kidding me? Not about the destruction and murdering part. Domestic cats won't die out. They are one of the most successful per hunt mammals there is. They won't die out if people stop feeding them. They'll kill even more so they can also eat.
