        I sincerely hope you go out and try to leash community cats.

        There are many feral cats who live in almost all our communities that don’t have a home. They don’t have people who care enough to house or feed them, not to mention leashing them when outside. They aren’t disposable.

        Animal abuse deserves punishment. Hard stop. I don’t know what kind of point you are fumbling for here, but I have a hard time seeing its relevance.

          ‘community cats’ wouldn’t exist if people actually cared for them in the first place and didn’t let them roam free. I bet you’d be vocal about ‘community dogs’ roaming free to do what they want. Cuteness should’t get a pass

            You’re preaching to the choir, friend. I work in animal welfare, and TNR and fostering feral kittens are my favorite ways to volunteer. I put my money and time where my mouth is.

            Keep in mind the context of the post.

        Torturing wild animals is cool and good, aktuly. Its weird that anyone would think otherwise. If the bobcat didn’t want me to cage it, pour gasoline over it, and set it on fire while I laughed at its animal screams, maybe it should have been licensed and penned in on someone’s private property.
