And good luck getting a boss to believe you're late cause you got kidnapped.

Somewhere there’s a bodega owner looking at his watch and shaking his head.

This cat was so hard working that after clearing its owner's apartment of rats -- it was down to the subway to clear that out.

Might even be the city's new rat czar.

Legit the city should be like Morocco and should have more cats to handle the rats.

There are already an insane number of cats in Brooklyn alone. Tons of them die on the street every year. Local TNR groups can't keep up.
I don't think more cats is the answer to the rat problem. The answer is better garbage disposal.
Pandapopcorn t1_j3rolma wrote
True. Garbage disposal is still stuck in the 60’s. In morocco the locals usually feed the cats and treat them with respect and the cats reciprocate by keeping the place clean.

Yeah unfortunately I think the hitch in your plan is that nobody in New York treats anything with respect.

Cats and rats both eat trash, that's why rich neighborhoods with street cleaners or people who are paid to containerize trash do not have feral cats. Cats don't actually hunt rats, either. A cat colony will passively deter rats, meaning, they will displace rats one house over, that's it, the real issue is trash.

Our winters are too harsh

Cats are essentially an invasive species, and kill billions of birds each year. I'm not suggesting we go out and kill cats, but we also should absolutely be trying to reduce the number of outdoor cats (both feral and domesticated).
