I do agree with the point. And I almost elaborated my comment about that. Because free-running and feral cats kill lots of birds and small mammals.
I do love cats as pets. I recall with fondness the carefree time when I let my cats run free. I mean, no need for litter boxes! And less expense for cat food! But at some point, that flipped to horror at the damage that they do. In part because they kill for play, not just for food.
So anyway, now my cats live indoors. And don't reproduce. But what to do about feral cats, I don't know. That's the discussion which is arguably pointless here.
