  • Whoa, I didn’t make up the ridiculous new York cat doomsday story, chill out. I didn’t realize in your head this was a (likely?) possibility, I’d assumed common sense which is my bad. I though it was more of a “XKCD what if” question.

    You’re accusing me of whatabouism?! Your argument is literally “WHAT ABOUT if everyone in new York let their cats out???” Im flabbergasted. You can focus on whatever issues you want, I’m just saying cats are pretty low on my list.

    And yes, unsolicited - unless I greatly missunderstood OPs intentions for the post. At least I’ve learned that being indoors is statistically safer than being outdoors though, so thank you for that insight.


  • I’d actually be interested to know what would happen in the new York situation, there is probably enough rats to sustain this new cat population comfortably.

    I’m not against getting cats spayed/neutered, or having cats soly indoors, I’m not sure where that came from? It’s just irksome when people insist on locking them up, especially unsolicited.

    “One too many, no local ecology can handle”…Are you implying we are on verge of a stray cat doomsday? Lots of countries have feral cats (and dogs),and while not ideal, they haven’t collapsed society (yet).

    Regardless, if you are able to sort out some other issues, like global warming, or micro plastics first, I’ll wholeheartedly listen about the cat apocalypse, deal?
