Amsterdam councillors have voted to spend up to €100,000 installing special steps along city centre canals in an effort to save cats and another animals which fall in the water, the Parool reported this week.
So… 100000€ because 19 cats, that shouldn’t be there, drowned. Domestic cats are extinction agents, cat colonies need to disappear (not by drowning the cats, ideally in my mind they should go to a really big building just for them, I am a silly dreamer) and if the cats aren’t feral, they should fine owners that let them roam outside. It’s bad for the ecosystem, dangerous for the cat and even for their humans (zoonosis).
That money would be better spent taking cats off the street.
I don’t find this uplifting at all.if this was in America it would be considered DEI and canceled immediately.
let those cats pick themselves up by their bootstraps and pull themselves out of the mess they got themselves in.
it’s not my job to pay for their problems.
Yeah, I’m sure you’;re right. You’re toally not just applying your hate to this situation.
This is what the fish have been preparing for.
Yea, just started to wonder who was here before us to install ladders so the mammals could get on land.
Checkmate atheists.
Maybe ban the sale of alcohol to these “cats”
The light/dark face meme, with “aren’t the canals pretty” and “cats that fall in can’t climb out and drown”
Obviously good. But, I’m gonna laugh if there is an uptick in the bubonic plague because rats aren’t dying in the canals.
