If you’re in an environment where cats are not natural and are invasive, don’t buy cats. Keeping them indoors isn’t a solution. It’s cruel for the cat unless you have an environment specifically set up to house them. All these problems come from people having cats in places they aren’t native and shouldn’t be to begin with.
Yeah, okay. So much less cruel to just trap and kill them all. Unless you’ve got a secret cat utopia where they can all go to.
The problem is there already. People adopting and keeping them indoors is not the problem.
A real solution would be better laws and enforcement involving cat breeders and people who let cats roam and reproduce freely. Or all the assholes around the time COVID lockdowns who figured they could just adopt temporarily and then abandon their pets.

Actually yeah that might be needed in some ecosystems. Having cats indoors doesn’t guarantee they won’t escape unfortunately. It should probably be illegal to buy and breed cats in many places around the world. Laws requiring they all be neutered would also help. I know Spain spays and kills feral cats regularly.
We need to find better, more sustainable, more local animals to replace them with.

As someone living in the Netherlands, I look forward to my pet… err… pigeon?
Ok but wait that might be kinda cool
Most domestic cats do just fine indoors.
House cat sized cats aren’t natural to anywhere are they? I thought they were bred smaller over many many years.
They actually come from Africa including Egypt. That’s where they belong.
