Is that title clickbait? I’m shocked, SHOCKED that you might think so.
Look, we all know that cats are awesome. But we also know that cats are murder machines. They kill smaller cute ‘lil critters with a joyful relish that is only matched by humanities own love of slaughter. Efforts are often and widely put in place to sterilize or outright exterminate feral cat populations because cats do serious damage to bird populations.
But… what if cats weren’t around? This video makes the hard-to-argue-against point that in a world suddenly without cats, humanities numbers would plummet and civilization would collapse precisely because our fluffy little friends murderous nature is protecting the entire planet from a very serious threat. (note: not a good video for folks what don’t care for seein’ critters kill other critters)
Humans sleep soundly in their beds because rough cats stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm.
