5 things that would happen if all the cats suddenly disappeared

There are several experts who say that if all the cats in the world died suddenly, things would quickly go very badly for us. Cats, domestic and street, can deceive us from the calendars and make us think that they depend on our food or our trash to survive, but nothing is further from reality.

Cats are a perfect survival machine, an important predator of small animals that can survive as a solitary soul when prey is scarce, while thriving in high density when prey is abundant. And they are so intimately linked to us that they also threaten our survival if one day they disappear right away.

God forbid, but that would affect us:

1- We would have less food.
Cats are vital in keeping pests in check by killing mice and rats in stables and grain storage areas. In India cats are considered as major players that play a crucial role in decreasing the amount of grain loss caused by the consumption or contamination of rodents.
A study conducted in 1997 in Britain found that a domestic cat brings home an average of more than 11 dead animals (including mice, birds, frogs and more) in the course of six months. In other words, it may be true that human beings feed cats; but without the cats, humans would have less food.

2- There would be fewer birds in the sky.
A study in New Zealand in 1979 found that, when cats were eradicated from the small Campbell Island, the local rat population quickly quadrupled. And if the population of rodents shoots up, this of course triggers a cascade of other, undesirable, ecological effects.
On the same island, for example, ecologists observed that this explosion of the rat population had a direct impact on the population of seabirds, whose eggs the rats ate. So if the approximately 220 million domestic cats around the world bit the dust, bird populations are likely to drop drastically until another population of less friendly rat predators fill their void.

3- It would worsen the health of people.
People who have cats and pets have a lower risk of developing heart problems than those who do not have pets, according to researchers at the Baker Medical Research Institute in Melbourne (Australia), who found that pet owners have a Lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels also lower, regardless of your smoking habit, diet, body mass index or income level.
It has also been shown that just caressing a cat helps those who struggle with an illness or suffer from depression. In fact, in 2008 a study by the American Heart Association showed that people who had surgery recently had a faster recovery if they had contact with cats and other pets.

4- Internet would run out of your favorite pet.
Sad to say, but sadder is to think about it. Can you imagine what would happen to the Internet if there were no kittens to photograph, without there being pussies who play pianos in the memes or without anyone starring in videos where they drink water from the toilet? These cats are a phenomenon on the Web from the moment of conception and any attempt to refute the opposite is aimed at public derision.
There are even pilgrim theories that say that the Internet has been invented by supreme cats who are scrutinizing us from the sky. Neither is so much, but no cats to YouTube would go, so to eye, millions of visits of a claw, condemning us for eternity to see the same cats again and again, putting LOL faces in a cycle without end. A hell in life, come on.

5- Unemployment would increase in Spain.
Let's be clear Nobody is interested more than Spain that this "apocalysis" never occurs, if we do not want to see the lists of the INEM plagued by workers in the arid sector. And all for the sepiolita. The sepiolite is the fundamental component of the cat's sand where these animals make their needs, a porous clay with excellent absorbing qualities (it absorbs more liquid than any other known mineral).
And one of the most sepiolite rich areas in the world is the Community of Madrid, Spain being the world's largest exporter of this material. If someone asks you where the largest sepiolite deposit that is exploited in the world is located, you will probably not know the answer: in Vallecas, at the foot of Cerro Almodóvar.
The company TOLSA exploits this open-air deposit just 10 km from Puerta del Sol, which contains nearly 70% of the estimated reserves of sepiolite in the world, managing hundreds of direct and indirect jobs, which also directly they would go to hell. And that without counting all the companies that are dedicated in one way or another to the world of cats, not necessarily to the sector of their depositions.
