A beautifully written piece and thank you for the heartwarming photos of the sweet little Greek kitties!
A country that treats its animals well is truly a reflection of the hearts and souls of its people.
But it now begs the question: what can be done to stop Australia’s murderous rampage on cats? If its people and government don’t care and in fact condone this violent speciesist genocide, how can non-Australians successfully intervene from the outside and bring a halt to this barbaric cruelty?
The ability of U.S. residents to influence this policy in Australia is limited; at least without one of two things which we do not possess:
1. Large-scale protests, boycotts, social media campaigns, and public discourse.
2. International advocacy and lobbying by government officials contacting foreign embassies, international organizations, or foreign-based interest groups to express their views and concerns, bilateral negotiations, trade agreements, and diplomatic efforts between governments, pressure from NGOs with a global reach that work across borders to advocate for specific policy changes or raise awareness about issues in foreign countries, and other similar high-level impact areas like economic sanctions, withholding foreign aid, etc.
What a wonderful article -- thank you much -- How can you not love Greece -- I love Greece -- I'm impressed with this : Greece REFUSES to round up Cats even though EU requested — and Greece is RIGHT — on the other hand, something is very wrong with Australia — we have Psychos making horrific decisions.

Is there anything U.S. residents can do to influence Australian policy for the better?
