Abstract
The expansion of urban areas is leading people to adopt cats as pets as they are better adapted to the modern lifestyle, require smaller spaces, and could stand alone for longer periods compared to other animals such as dogs. However, environmental groups are concerned about the increasing population of felines in urban areas, as they believe that cats threaten the lives of wild birds and small mammals that may be extinct. This research note presents the pros and cons of cats’ presence in cities as to how to handle them. Correct management of these animals is necessary since the greatest environmental risk related to their presence is their uncontrolled reproduction and consequent abandoning of undesirable pups by their tutors.
