Alley Cat Rescue Disputes Polish Academy of Science Classification of Cats as 'Invasive Alien Species'

Tuesday, August 2, 2022

MOUNT RAINIER, Md., Aug. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The government-funded Polish Academy of Sciences has classified domestic cats (Felis catus) as an "invasive alien species." This designation is given to species that are not native to a region's ecosystem, and cause damage to that ecosystem. The institute has said that the label is purely scientific and not a call to action against cats. They say that the number of birds and other small native animals cats kill per year qualifies them to be on the listed this way in their national database.

Key Points: 
  • Alley Cat Rescue says large scale effects of cat predation on natural wildlife is sensationalized to deflect from manmade environmental destruction and advocates for decreasing cat populations humanely through trap-neuter-return.
  • MOUNT RAINIER, Md., Aug. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The government-funded Polish Academy of Sciences has classified domestic cats (Felis catus) as an "invasive alien species."
  • Beyond the Academy's moral responsibility to avoid putting cats' lives in danger, the classification is based on shaky science.
  • Thousands of nonprofit groups Alley Cat Rescue have TNR programs that benefit wildlife without harming cats.
