I don’t see why they should though. A person destroying a bird’s nest will be charged with a crime, but you can get your cat to do it with zero consequences. Cats don’t need to roam, as anyone with a house cat will tell you. Catios are also a thing that gives cats outside access without being a menace to wildlife and a nuisance to neighbours.
Cats have the right to roam, whereas dogs don’t. The law treats cats in a weird way that doesn’t apply to dogs.
This, speaking as a dog owner. Also I get annoyed a lot at seeing dog shit everywhere, so I get it.
Cats are also annoying, in so far they’re held to a different standard, but what are you gonna do? 🤷♂️
Edit: tbh, as often the issue is inconsiderate people.
