Note that while domestic cats are unlikely to venture far, they don’t need to, as native birds fly into residential neighbourhoods without issue. Regardless, they are between 10 and 100 times more effective at killing wildlife than a comparable predator such as a weasel or owl.
Yeah, it doesn’t. Despite you using the term “wildlife”, there’s nothing wild about the habitat of cats. If cats lived in a place with natural predators and without humans protecting them, there’d be barely any cats.
I get it…you’re an anti-cat crusader. You got radicalized about a minor problem amidst all the major problem of human behaviour destroying habitat and wiping out species. I empathize…I hate invasive species, including humans.
I propose that you do something meaningful, like opposing materialism as a lifestyle, rather that getting outraged about some boutique issue. Sure, if it comes up, don’t own a cat or encourage people to get one if you don’t have livestock.
Bold to assume I cannot be angry about multiple things. Bolder to assume I hate cats. What I am “crusading” against is your inability to understand basic biological concepts or acknowledge simple evidence. Since you cannot even be bothered to comprehend actual refutations when they are labeled on a platter, I return to my first comment:
You’re projecting and seem to be more concerned with owning me and changing the subject to things you’re technically correct about.
I’m all for a conversation about eliminating cats…but the way to do that isn’t to waste your time on the cats themselves, but rather the overarching impulses. If you have an indoor cat, the problems you’re going to cause to the environment just buying things for your stupid cat is going to be more harmful than having an outdoor cat. Git it?
100 years ago? Really? Why are you assuming I’m talking about the past? Educate yourself.
Also, here’s a scientific study completely disproving your unfounded suppositions

Mind like an ocean, indeed.
