idk where you live but where I live, all there is for a cat to hunt is a mouse or maybe a pigeon, and those animals are so abundant that they are a pest themselves
even then, many cats are too lazy to hunt anything, as they know their owner will feed them something way more delicious
I'm very curious where you live. It seems more likely that you're simply unaware of your ecosystem than that you live in a place with only to animals that cats prey on
Well there are more animals in the forests but it's too far away. Idk about other cats but our cat doesn't stray far from our garden so all it can hunt is things I see in my garden. Which is pigeons, bugs, maybe a rat, more pigeons and some other birds. I'm also pretty confident our cat never took the effort to even try to hunt any of those.
