It's definitely a touchy subject. I can't blame a cat for coming in my garage and doing it's natural thing but definitely irritated that some owners let their cats roam. I now live in an older suburb where most are retirees and have their toy dogs and multiple cats. This has its share of problems and differentiating viewpoints. Personally, I hold owners responsible.
Ironically, these old folks here flip out about the coyotes and hawks being a danger to their pets and demand action yet their free range cat kills every bird, lizard, rodent it can find. But when someone's cat is missing it's all "Thoughts n Prayers".
I like cats and dogs. Not a huge fan of most of their owners though.
