Domesticated cats are #1 mass-killer of modern nature

I'd like to stick a pitchfork in Austin's grandmother...both for her cat-murders, and for producing him.

Now you asked a question =)

Let me assure you there many more like my relatives multiplied by many millions who dislike cats in the U.S. in rural and non-rural areas.


It is our culture. Cats are vermin. It is not murder. They are animals. You cannot compare a human to an animal. That is not logical or humane.

Except for the fact that Humans are animals. Seriously, I keep seeing this popping up on the board today. We're not fucking plants or fungi. We are A-N-I-M-A-L-S.

No I do not see you as an animal. Nor would a great majority of Americans or people on this planet.

Cats aren't seen as cuddly, good things on farms and ranches. Though on ranches cats are eaten by coyotes so you don't have to worry as much.

Um, on farms in England they're seen as good. We have a cat on our land, they take care of the mice trying to get at the grain stores and will also tackle smaller rats and rabbits too.

Stray cats might as well be killed if they can't be adopted, its simply euthanization that helps prevent over-population. Many of them are suffering anyway, a lot of cats are abandonned when they have something wrong with them and people can't afford the bills.
In the UK people abandon them like that, hoping that the RSPCA will find them I suppose, it's wrong. The problem is more to do with humans allowing to many pets to breed in order to make money from selling the offspring, it leads to over-population.
Cats can cause a nusiance if the numbers get out of hand and if man has taken away the natural vectors which kill them off (the case in England).

Women get too emotional, someone I know saved three turkeys last christmas, now she's stuck with them because she won't take them to the butchers and no one will buy them.
People need to think about things logically sometimes instaead of getting all emotional about it.
