Must allow the rats to take over ….. Typical message from our so-called betters
They must have decided it’s time for the plague…
One of the reasons for the spread of the rat-flea-borne Black Death was that there was a very crazy Pope at the time who hated cats and launched a campaign against them throughout Europe. There simply weren’t enough cats left to keep down the rat population in the port areas.
And don’t forget the famous cats of St Petersburg, airdropped in by the British to take down the huge rat population that was spreading disease after the siege.
That is probably true. After the cats are removed, there will probably be another expensive program to control the rats.
