Should wild cats be exterminated?

If by wild cats you mean actual wild native animals, no, they should not be exterminated. If you mean feral cats, domestic cats that have been released from captivity as pets, my feeling as a wildlife rehabilitator is yes, they should be trapped and euthanized. Feral cats cause incalculable damage to native birds and other wildlife. They carry diseases which can be spread to humans and pets. Feral cats are the single most important carrier of rabies. Not only that, it is cruel to leave these animals to fend for themselves. They need to be relieved of their misery. Our native wildlife deserves protection from these animals.

How are cats and wild cats alike?

by wild cats do you mean feral cats? As in outdoor cats with no owners? If so here's your answer, Feral cats usually create clans. usually the oldest female is the leader. She will breed until she is about 8 years old and then she will "retire herself" to be a member of the clan moving whichever daughter to be the new leader. when male kittens grow up most of the time they live in the clan for 2 years and then become loaners going around breeding with every female around. sometimes the male will stay and be a babysitter for the clan leader.
