Sure, hand wave an extinction because its inconvenient.

Do you actually need me to google uk cat death counts for you? Or do you think predators entering human settlements is normal?

Did you guys not recently have a "serial cat murderer" who was just a fox leaving its kills in public places? Do you think thats a normal thing?

How am I hand waving it? I'm stating an obvious truth. What impact on wildcats do you expect to come from cats in Cornwall, Ipswich, or Manchester?

I think you don't have a clue what you're talking about. Yes, I would like you to google cat death counts and show me any evidence for what you're saying. I wouldn't be surprised at all to find that cats sometimes get killed by other animals, but to suggest that it's a significant cause of death or that they're the reason that foxes are coming to 'human settlements' is complete nonsense. You make it sound like packs of badgers roam the streets of London at night.

Foxes in cities are very normal. They're basically the UK's raccoon. They scavenge things, including the bodies of cats hit by cars.

If you think foxes are normal in cities, I actually dont think a pile of dead cats in front of your house would shake you of your delusions, to be honest.

You keep on hand waving reality bud. Worked stellar for brexit, and its destroying what shred of ecosystem is left on the british isles. But hey, you havent been right yet, gotta keep pushing on until you are right?

I can't tell if you're trolling or just incapable of an adult conversation, but I'm blocking you either way. Bye.
