oooh, fear-mongering, no one has tried that before.
There are no coyotes on Maui, moron, or any other animals that would attack him except dogs, and all those he would encounter are cat friendly, and I am far from the road so that’s no issue.
Try again, asshole.
edit: seriously, dawg, this island has cat colonies everywhere because they have no predators here. There are volunteers just to feed all the feral cats.
Enjoy your down votes, dipshit
They’re disabled on my instance, downvote away.
And my cat is still going outside. Cry more.
And there are 5 other outdoor cats on this property that don’t belong to me. Cry harder.
I'll just leave this here

Sure, and until all the cat colonies are gone, bitching about my one cat means nothing. Meanwhile, the main threat to native birds remains to be the mosquitos. Threatened birds haven't been caught and sent to be raised in captivity because of cats, it's because of the virus laden mosquitos. Plenty of articles about that if you bother to look. My cat is still going outside. Get the fuck over it.
edit: also, I already commented on this reality regarding my own cat here

I just love how people who don't live here think they're going to educate us on something.
You're going to pull the "other people do it so I can too" fallacy? Cat colonies existing doesn't justify making the problem worse. That's an error in thinking, and ties in with how emotionally involved you are in this. I know you said elsewhere you don't care, but someone who leaves 20+ comments in a thread clearly does. I know you get that little kick of adrenaline each time you reply thinking that you're a freedom fighter or something but you're really not furthering a cause here.
No, that’s not what I said. Continue with getting over it.

edit: also, the only reason why there’s 20+ replies is because you douchebags keep pushing your agenda, and I keep telling you no.
