i didnt grow up with cats. only into adulthood did i come across them. i always thought they were aloof and stupid creatures, but they can be quite affectionate and friendly. I now have 5 (along with 4 dogs). theres pros and cons with both species. but i can say i'm pretty sure my dogs have killed more birds than the cats have
Cat paw prints on my car of a morning.
Keep your pet contained in your own yard, as I am required to do with my dog.
Yep your username, some ups a human cat.I've never understood cat hate.
Now dogs... they're f**king disgusting.
why is the domestic cat so hated?

Don't start on killing native wildlife
Bazzi's got cats.
We could start by picking on other feral species such as goats and pigs. These animals are not native to this country either and they cause immense damage to farms.
Neither are cane toads.
Certain species are instinctively natural predators. Including felines. Thankfully nobody introduced the Panthera tigris tigris into Australia (aka Bengal Tiger).
Like all pet owners, there are responsible and irresponsible cat owners. Those who let their's out of a night to fight, mate and screech, piss me off.
My two cats only go outside during daylight hours for shorts stints totally supervised by me. And only the backyard as well.

Like I said, not all cat owners are f**kwits. There's the odd one like yourself who leave them indoors and supervise them outside. Out of everyone I know that owns a cat(s,) only one strictly leaves them indoors and supervises their outdoor activities. The rest couldn't give a f**k what they get up to.
There is one thing worse than a cat though, and that's an idiot cat hater who thinks taking a cat and dumping them 20km away from home in the scrub is a good way to teach the cat a lesson. They forget they hone in on their primal instincts pretty quick smart and become feral and subsequently do more damage to native wildlife than they would as pet.
If your cats are outdoors, I can guarantee they've killed more.

i had a cat go missing and it turned up 6-8 months later at the pound. it was found about a 15-20min car ride away and theres very little chance it could have gotten there itself given the freeway which separates the areas. always wondered how it ended up there. maybe some merkin caught it and dumped it.
my cats are out during the day and in at night. if i ever hear cats fighting i go outside and break it up. its always been other cats coming into my yard and harassing my cats
