They are still mesopredators. A big bird of prey, a coyote, or a fox wouldn't mind going for a cat.
But it's not even relevant for the discussion whether they are apex predators or not. They are efficient predators and the artificial high number of individuals is harmful for the ecosystem.

There's an enormous difference in the natural occurrence of native wild cats and feral or roaming domestic cats.
No one is arguing against native wild cats being around, but against artificially introducing a mesopredator into the ecosystem.

As a "professional ecologist" you should be aware of the concept of "landscape of fear".
Non-consumptive effects have an equally strong (some argue an even stronger) effect on prey populations compared to consumptive effects.
Letting domesticated cats roam freely creates an unnaturally high predation pressure in the area and has more effects on the local wildlife than just killing it.

Dabei hilft mir die Zwiebel erst zu halbieren und erst dann zu schälen. In den meisten Fällen bricht das die Spannung der Schale und diese lässt sich dann recht zügig entfernen.

A bit of nitpicking, it's not born to a wild cat, but a feral cat.
We do have actual European wild cats, so it's a small but important distinction.
Auch auf Deutsch würde ich eher von einer verwilderten Katze reden, da wir eben richtige Europäische Wildkatzen haben.

Jo, die einzigen Feiertage wo wirklich alles zu ist sind Juhannus (Mittsommer) und Weihnachten (obwohl bei Weihnachten bin ich nicht Mal sicher).

Naja, TGV ist französisch und nicht belgisch.
Und in Belgien fallen auch gerade einige Züge aus, bei mir in der Region auch fast alle Busse.
DB ist zwar katastrophal, aber in diesem Aspekt ist SNCB nicht so viel besser.

I would have been more understanding if it was always on the level of two extra cans of soup or comparable.
But 2 lbs of pine nuts is not balancing the scales, that's abusing the system.

I mean I could understand (but not necessarily approve) if it would be a few everyday groceries here and there. But pine nuts? 2 lbs? Sorry, but that's just ridiculous.
I can completely understand if people have to steal food to make ends meet. It's a tragedy that they have to do it, but it's the system's fault and not theirs.
But OP doesn't seem to fit into that category.

Oh come on, really?
Don't get me wrong, I don't care about some big chain losing some money, for me it's a matter of principle to not fuck with the system unless really needed.
Two cans of soup, I don't care. But pine nuts? Cheating the system for some "luxury" goods and not some essentials is pretty low.
