Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Okay, I'll bite: Half your accusations are nonsensical. Cats kill "other pets"? Yeah, I suppose, if you put your goldfish in a shallow bowl on your patio... Property damage? Did you even use half a brain cell before making that statement?
Furthermore - yes, domestic cats killing birds is an issue. One that's successfully inflated and thrown at you from tons of news to try and distract you from the orders of magnitude larger effect that industry has on the bird population.
Beyond that: cats are an issue where they are brought into an ecosystem that hasn't adapted to them, e.g. New Zealand. But in most parts of the world, cats are absolutely compatible with the ecosystem, as their typical prey is detrimental to gardens / agriculture. Why do you think humans domesticated cats in the first place?
Take your undifferentiated hate against cats to a therapist and work on your self hate.
