Not in the wild, but in a suburban neighborhood they are. Apex is relative to what else is out there.

They are still mesopredators. A big bird of prey, a coyote, or a fox wouldn't mind going for a cat.
But it's not even relevant for the discussion whether they are apex predators or not. They are efficient predators and the artificial high number of individuals is harmful for the ecosystem.
