Default Greece exterminating cats (and other rants)

Hello:

I seems like it is not too difficult for people to decide not to externimate
dogs as a bothersome vermin, but when it comes to cats it is apparently a
completely different issue - any compassion and common sense flies out
the window.

People will go out of their way to run over a cat on the road BUT --
I watched a state highway with a speed limit of 65 mph come to a
screeching halt (both lanes) at 2:30 p.m. while a dog with a rabbit in his
mouth
walked back and forth several times over both lanes trying to decide
which way to go.

Seems like the dog has graduated from the status of "the dog is not property,
but the dog is still always wrong" to "the dog has the right-of-way" while cats
are
still "property," i.e., trash. I have never understood the down right HATRED
and FEAR that fully grown and supposedly well educated people display when it
comes to cats.

It's not that I don't like dogs or anything, I just don't understand the
mindset.
Any ideas?

Michelle A.
