    After cats are reestablished in places they are meant to be in can we get them out of places where they are invasive?

      Who the hell downvotes this?

      Nobody’s trying to take away your cats - just reduce/stop their disproportionate ecological damage.

        Cats and dogs get prioritized over local species that they endanger all over the world yet shelters are full of the poor critters. A local cat used to even come in my house and try to get in my bird room, but thankfully couldn’t figure out the screen. It probably died of old age or coyotes, or getting stuck in someone’s hoarder garage though. I haven’t seen it in a few years and I know a number of people on my street wouldn’t notice if the cat went in the junk pile. And no I didn’t do anything to the cat for anyone looking for something to rage at me over. I picked it up and sent it on its way even though it’s just another menace to the local environment and pet cats really shouldn’t be let out uncontrolled.
