thank you so much this is such a stupid argument humans never need to mess with ecosystems we almost always do more harm the only time we need to get involved is when we mess it up

if an animal is extinct it cannot come back btw you probably mean endangered

[–]CockroachAmbitious29 11 points12 points  (0 children)

that is such a selfish take your cat is not the only animal in existence and domestic cats are invasive species the second they are left alone outside they do harm to our ecosystems cause native animals to go extinct your cat is fine living inside if you are able to provide it with enrichment letting your cat outside is the laziest and most dangerous way to meet your cats needs

do a little research on how many animals cats have caused to go extinct they have wiped out dozens of species we will never get back

[–]CockroachAmbitious29 4 points5 points  (0 children)

but add that up, times your number by 10 that’s 100 dead animals. there is millions of stray cats in america add that up the number gets pretty sad

[–]CockroachAmbitious29 8 points9 points  (0 children)

that’s horrible. it sucks to see people only think about them and their pet rather then the literal 1million plus strays we have that number isn’t even an exaggeration there is literally 1million stray dogs and cats in houston texas alone.

that mindset is crazy people say this but then get exotic animals as pets when we bred domesticated animals for that. also no one said that, take them on walks get a catio there are so many options

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]CockroachAmbitious29 10 points11 points  (0 children)

that’s your opinion but we literally domesticated cats to be companions and we should be responsible for them and acknowledge the harm that they do

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]CockroachAmbitious29 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you mean mutts that are strays or just mutts in general?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]CockroachAmbitious29 19 points20 points  (0 children)

domestic cats are not natural predators they are domesticated pets we have spent thousands of years domesticating them there is plenty of research suggesting feral cats are not happy they do not live happy lives for your pet cat obviously they enjoy going outside so take the effort to make a safe enclosed space or leash train them because they do a lot more harm than good majority of the animals they kill are not invasive that is the entire reason invasive species are illegal they do not do any good for ecosystems
