Aren't cats spreading another infection that's the cause of "old cat lady" syndrome?

Cats shouldn't be allowed to ro freely anyway. They are an invasive species and kill lots of local animals, especially birds. Austrliateven went so far as culling them

Cat scratches and bites may inject the yeast directly into other cats, people, dogs and other animals. “I’m convinced that half of the human cases that come from cats are people who are trying to stuff pills down their cat’s throats to treat the sporotrichosis,” getting scratched and bitten in the process.

Well this just gets worse the more I read.

I admit my mind went to this too. It's a shame I just can't view this thing with anything but anger since learning it is horrendous-tier dehumanizing zionist propaganda from a rabid zionist writer. The game and the show. Shame on the actors for continuing to participate in that zionist agit-prop in the middle of a genocide carried out by the people the writer is doing apologia for.

Whoa what's the tea on the last of us being Zionist? Is it because you shouldn't sacrifice the one to save the many?

Neil Druckmann is a zionist who drew a lot of influence of the ongoing genocide in Palestine into his work (specifically Part II)
