What would happen to the domestic cat population if humans suddenly vanished?

There are a bunch of wild cats around me due to people just dropping them off.

Cats will adopt. The ones here have.

There was a tv series on history channel that was all about what would happen in 100 years after humans disappeared today.

I can't remember the name.

Dogs would eventually breed themselves into a single breed known as the ‘pariah dog’.

>90% of dogs would be dead and gone within a few weeks

cat population would increase exponentially

NOLA had a big feral cat problem in the wake of Katrina if that tells you anything.

Because all the do good hipsters came in and rescued all the dogs. Had a raccoon and opossum as well as many other critters dogs would taken care of problem.

I don't think that would be much of a barrier for most breeds. Dogs can dig. I had a pug growing up, and even it could dig under the fence and squeeze her way out.

There’s nothing I like more on the history channel then shows about the future

quote:

---

They showed cats living in high rise buildings, eventually growing wing flaps and gliding around like flying squirrels. I don't know how true that would be, but it was certainly interesting.

Certainly not within 100 years.

also, more dogs get spayed/neutered than cats.
that’s gonna hurt their numbers

my dog (lab catahoula mix) would be fine as long as there was animals smaller than him still around.

he’s caught and killed damn near everything in my yard squirrels, snakes, birds, a coon
