• And so begins a new battle in the eternal war between Americans with indoor cats and others with outdoor cats.

    It’s pretty difficult to actually find an indoor cat in the UK. In the US it’s common.

      I guess we in Finland are Americand now lol

      We’re more worried about the cats wellbeing though than the birds.

        Yeah the British really do have a history of royally fucking over whole eco systems. Brought rabbits to Australia thinking they would be a good food source.

        Except they bred like well rabbits. And destroyed whole eco systems. So the British imported foxes to eat the rabbits. Except literally every other native species is easier for a fox to kill than a fast rabbit.

        Fucking morons.

          That’s a bit of a harsh take considering it was one guy on the 19th century who didn’t know better. Looking at it he brought 13 rabbits for his private estate - I don’t think the science was there for extended Environmental Impact Studies back then - just some rich guy making a minor change to his place having unintended consequences so branding an entire country as fucking morons is a bit much.
