Cats Destroying The Planet

Our cats may be cuddly pals and adorable internet memes, but they are also destroying the environment more efficiently than humans. They have been called one of the "worst" invasive species. And a new study published today in Nature Communications suggests that cats are responsible for killing several endangered bird species in the United States, and decimating bird populations on islands all over the world. In the US, cats kill as many as 3.7 billion native birds annually, making them a bigger threat to these creatures than buildings, towers, windows, poison, and cars.

Dogs piss on trees, grass, etc, killing them. Next we'll hear dogs are destroying the planet because they are killing endangered species of trees and grass. This stuff will never end. Hope the dogs don't get to the weed of the world. Now that'll be tragic.

I forgot cats are destroying wildlife reserves and forests so they can make money from produce too and they've been building buildings and contaminating the planet for decades. Oh wait.

I agree with what you're trying to say. Pandas are the real problem.
