BITTY!
Pinto being bothered
Wow, its cool to see the color of her fur change over time

Reminds me of one of these:
I couldn't find a comparison between the two (though the first sentence of what you quoted seems to acknowledge it), but I did find this article which makes an argument that the meaningful ecological impact of cats is context dependent:
There is general agreement that free-roaming cats can pose a significant risk to wildlife populations; however, the credible evidence is quite clear that this risk is limited to very specific contexts (e.g., small islands) and even then is likely only one part of a larger story. Sweeping claims that lack necessary context (e.g., conflating island and mainland environments) confuse the issue and impede productive conversation about how best to manage free-roaming cat populations.
Published research and mainstream media accounts often focus on areas where free-roaming cats come into conflict with protected native wildlife species [46–49]. Although this attention is understandable, it’s important to recognize that such situations attract attention precisely because they are exceptional.
This seems consistent with what you linked, which also emphasizes islands and protected species. Maybe it makes sense to restrict outdoor cats specifically on islands.
Cat's don't belong outside unsupervised.

Asleep in her tower. I'll try to get a good picture later, but have one from the archives for now!
Never talked to any gang members huh?
Well, the joke is that Bloods can't say things beginning with the letter C, like "Cat," and the above comment repeatedly used "brat" to replace "cat" as would be done by a Blood. For instance, they don't say "cracking," they'll replace the C, making it "bracking." Crips will do the reverse, saying C where there once was a B. Yes it's ridiculous, but that's what they do, and the joke requires knowledge of this to understand. They also have numbers ascribed to their gangs, 5 is bloods, 6 is crips, so "what's brackin' 5" would be something said by some Damu out there to another (a Damu being a member of the bloods, damu means blood in Swahili iirc, and tbf he'd actually say "what's poppin 5" instead but brackin' was necessary for the joke.)
Yes it is silly. Now enjoy my favorite old Blood music video from the 47 Miller Gang, If U Blood Throw It Up
It's made harder due to Google making their image search worse, seems to get far less results now they've completely replaced Image Search with Lens, but downloading the image and/or using Google Lens to find sites with the image, and going down a chain to find the earliest date, largest dimensions, and least compression blur/unnecessary graphics. SEO Wagon Reverse Image Search used to help, as it searches Yandex as well and Yandex sometimes has better results.
Here's another example plus there are a few others linked in the comments there.
Anecdotally one of my cats will "fix" her fur in the mirror if it gets messed up. My theory is that they do generally pass the mirror test but most cats just don't care.

Why make cat vape when you can make cat dabs????

Turns out even Pünktchen ("little dot", named after her face pattern) likes my scritches. Took her since sunday though to warm up to me.
Katzen-Sitting – Abholtag. Hab noch ein bisschen mit Pünktchen und Koda gekuschelt und mit Lilly gespielt. Miez freut sich jetzt, dass sie das Wohnzimmer wieder für sich hat.
Wie sich rausstellt mag auch Pünktchen - die nach ihrem Gesichtsmuster benannt ist - meine Krauleinheiten. Sie hat aber seit Sonntag gebraucht aufzutauen.
She is a really small cutie (almost a year old)
Mit nem knappen Jahr ist sie immer noch winzig aber ne gaaanz Süße.
Lilly is 3 y/o and has the most beautiful coloring.

Tomorrow my two remaining wisdom teeth are finally getting pulled. So today I enjoyed spending my Feierabend in my garden with my cat Miez.
Zu meinem 13. Kuchentag schenke ich euch Ruhe - Gartenzeit für meine Katze Miez und den letzten vollständigen Tag mit den anderen
Morgen werden mir noch meine beiden verbliebenen Weisheitszähne gezogen. Deshalb habe ich den heutigen Feierabend mit meiner Katze Miez im Garten genossen.
Miez keeps in view most of the times while I'm out there. However the tracker gives her some additional freedom.
Miez bleibt die meiste Zeit im Blickfeld, während ich mit ihr draußen bin. Der Tracker gibt ihr jedoch etwas mehr Bewegungsfreiheit.

Lilly loves herself some scritches. I am sitting her, Koda (both former cats of mine) and Pünktchen until thursday. The first few days Lily was mostly under the couch.
Miezles hüten Tag 3 - Lilly ist endlich hervorgekommen
Ich passe bis Donnerstag auf Lilly, Koda – die früher mal meine Katzen waren – und Pünktchen auf. Lilly liebt es, gekrault zu werden. In den ersten Tagen hat sie sich allerdings meistens unter dem Sofa versteckt.
Lilly is a real cutie pie. She has always had some major anxiety issues though. If you watch closely in some vids you can see hair missing on one of her hind legs. It is where she used to gnaw herself sore when she was younger.
Lilly ist echt ein süßer Schatz. Allerdings hatte sie schon immer ziemlich mit Angstproblemen z

Miez greatly enjoys her garden privileges. Pünktchen likes to watch everything and everyone that moves.
Zweiter Tag Miezles hüten: Es wird viel gestarrt
Miez genießt, dass sie die einzige ist die in den Garten darf. Pünktchen schaut gerne allem und jedem zu.
Koda has claimed the biggest hammock as his, to no surprise. He's sleeping a lot.
Koda hat natürlich die größte Hängematte erobert. Er schläft viel.
Kodas main advantage: He knows me well enough not to try anything while I can reach him. So he has open door privileges (with me sitting right next to him). I'm surprised neither him nor Miez hissed.

My cat Miez lurks from above...
Erster Tag Miezles hüten.
Meine Miez beobachtet von oben...
...while her brother Koda takes his first round through my living room.
...während ihr Bruder seine Erkundungsrunde durchs Wohnzimmer absolviert.
Pünktchen ("little dot") is here for the first time.
Pünktchen ist zum ersten Mal hier
Despite being a lot smaller, she seems way more confident than Miez, who already surpised me by entering the living room despite other cats being present.
Obwohl sie im Vergleich winzig ist ist sie viel selbstbewusster als Miez. Wobei mich Miez heu

Today, I went to stack up on my cat Miez's medication before the easter holidays. Their horses sure do have one of the best views in town up there. This is Eichstätt, Bavaria, Germany.
Die Pferde meines Tierarzts haben nen tollen Ausblick. Außerdem treffe ich gerade Vorbereitungen für den Besuch meiner ehemaligen Katzen.
Heute hab ich noch schnell vor den Feiertagen die Medikamente meiner Miez aufgefüllt. Die Pferde bei meinem Tierarzt haben einen der besten Ausblicke der Stadt (Eichstätt in Oberbayern).
Miez might be asthmatic but otherwise she is my very healthy 11 y/o girl. This is her sitting on my current build project, a staircase cat tree.
Miez hat zwar Asthma, aber ist sonst meine sehr fitte 11jährige Katzendame. Hier sitzt Miez auf der Ka
She loves sitting in the hammock with me :)

Update on Warehouse kitty, day 7.
Such a sweet kitty. Still pretty hidey, but coming along and opening up. She's play biting me now and it's so cute. Still hisses sometimes when she sees me but still doesn't mean it. Her leg is healing up so good that I never put the cone on her, I think part of the licking was stress which I've removed as much as possible. Picture to follow here.

Maze's ear has improved
A while ago, Maze hurt her ear. Since then we've been giving her all kinds of medication. Obviously things aren't pristine, but she's doing way better and her wheezing has nearly disappeared!
Rescue from my warehouse
This little scaredy cat got into the warehouse in which I work, and someone had to save her so I did. I recently asked about integrating her into my house with my 2y old cat.
So far, she's been quarantined in a separate room, she's got a bite on her foot I wasn't told about that looks partially healed, but still not great, and so I'll have to figure that out first. I have a cone on the way to stop her from licking at it until I can get her to the vet (who was supposed to email me yesterday...c'mon guys kitty need help!) Unclear if the bite came from one of the dogs inside the warehouse, or (lord I hope not, but...honestly I think so..), the raccoon she was spotted near a few days before she gained entry to the warehouse. I have a pic if anyone wants to see it, but it looks like a lil puncture wound (not exactly cute) so I'm only going to if someone requests 'cause they wanna help (as much help as that can be, need the vet for sure but advice is always welcome in the meantime!!)
