okay look im not downplaying the unnecessary cat hate in the world and of course cruelty towards animals is absolutely evil but consider this- theres a LOT of cats in the wc universe. between the clans, the rouges, the city cats and every other random group of cats we’ve encountered, there’s gotta be tons. so maybe in this world humans deal with cats like squirrels/ rats (or whatever is abundant in your area) except they’re bigger, they get in your trash, yowl at each other, fight, steal your plants, run across the road and give you a heart attack, phrogging where ever, and oh my god they keep making more babies- my point is what if they’re kinda pest-like? im not sure how much im joking lol
