ESH. Kid shouldn't have done it, but also the lady shouldn't let the cat outside

I don't get why Americans hate animals. You do realise earth isn't owned by humans?

Mate, cats are not a native species. They hunt for sport and wind up absolutely destroying the local ecosystem. Outdoor cats should be killed onsight like literally any other invasive species.

"These are non-native predators that, even using conservative estimates, kill 1.3–4 billion birds and 6.3–22.3 billion mammals each year in the U.S. alone (Loss et al. 2013, Nature Communications)"

I personally care more about my local ecosystem than some cat that someone is too lazy to play with and keep entertained.
