I would eat both of it were legal. Dog meat has been described to me multiple times and it sounds devine. Cats used to be called rooftop chickens. If you're unwilling to eat X meat because of sympathy, I think you're a bad omnivor. Also my family recently survived a famine so I feel it's disrespectful to my ancestors
But would you boil them alive?
Dont forget that cats also are invasive in a lot of places. Now get that rooftop chicken before it gets an actual bird.
As required where I live cats should be neutered/sterilized.
That is sufficient.
The invasive argument is often used as an excuse by cat haters (there seem to be a lot for some reason) and sadists who do the most horrible things to them.
My cat was as good as a family member.
Always said if theoretically there were 2 people in a burning house and my cat, the first thing I'm doing is save my cat.
Not even a question.
And I don't want to think about what I would do if I caught one of those sick animal torturers.
been in that theoretical and the first thing all of us did was corral the cats.
Don't cats also keep rodent populations in check? It's not all bad. Cities are completely transformed for humans anyway, so it's hard to say what fauna "should" survive on the streets.
But outside of cities, you're damn right. There was that one individual cat that is responsible for the extinction of multiple species!
Not sure how effective of a pest control cats are. And don't be mistaken on the role of cities as ecosystems. They can harbour birds a lot, especially with greenspaces.
i mean our "outside cats" are usually doing work killing rats and shit, so
Also all the birds.
Back before we realized the extent of it, we were really proud of how good our indoor outdoor mouser was. Could sneak into a flock of pigeons unnoticed and catch a hummingbird without killing it. I miss that cat. She personally extincted some bluebirds.
Yeah that can be a valid context from my POV, especially in a farm or sth similar.
But at least in my country the majority of outside cats are in suburbs or similar family homes with no agriculture around that is threatened by vermin.
On the other hand now I am wondering on the efficiency of cats as pest control.
Not the question.
We should just start eating humans. They are pointless and invasive and they eat meat as a choice.
