• Can you imagine if dog people let their dogs fuck off at night? They’d rightly be charged and have their pets taken away, what makes you special.

    If your pet becomes my pest, I will deal with it as such. Not to mention all the dangers you’re risking your cat die to.

    Really it’s a big case of entitlement, you think you’re entitled to use everyone’s property to entertain your cat, cause you’re too irresponsible of an owner to entertain and enrich your cat’s life at home

      How to “deal” with a cat is by running outside screaming at and chasing it like a madman. That thing will disappear and never dare be seen in your garden again.

      newsflash: a cat is not a dog

      a pest? what do they do? they’re just cats? i suppose you just hate animals? do you blame birds for “using your property” too?

        Cats have caused dozens of extinctions in the new world alone. I’m not as familiar with old world regions, but I understand they’re not exactly friendly to local wildlife there either. They’re not “just cats,” they’re an apex predator that no ecosystem outside of Northern Africa evolved to deal with. You don’t let zebra mussels into your local lake. You don’t plant kudzu in your yard. Don’t let your cats outside unsupervised.

          idk where you live but where I live, all there is for a cat to hunt is a mouse or maybe a pigeon, and those animals are so abundant that they are a pest themselves

          even then, many cats are too lazy to hunt anything, as they know their owner will feed them something way more delicious

            I’m very curious where you live. It seems more likely that you’re simply unaware of your ecosystem than that you live in a place with only to animals that cats prey on

              Well there are more animals in the forests but it’s too far away. Idk about other cats but our cat doesn’t stray far from our garden so all it can hunt is things I see in my garden. Which is pigeons, bugs, maybe a rat, more pigeons and some other birds. I’m also pretty confident our cat never took the effort to even try to hunt any of those.

        Newsflash: birds aren’t cats either

        If you’re going to be an ass about it, at least have SOME logical consistency.

          birds do more harm than cats: they poop everywhere
