To quote Greta, ‘How dare they?!’ SBS is running an advertising campaign for Airbnb, encouraging visitors to take their cats with them when they go bush. And they are using one of the great songs of the sixties to do it – ‘Wild Thing’.
What an abomination. Bad enough that Airbnb is totally upsetting the residential balance in the Shire for humans, but it seems they want to make life even more precarious for small animals.
Perhaps the answer is to introduce tourists’ cats to some of the other locals, like Morelia spilota or Varanus gouldii. That might restore the balance of animals. But what about the humans?
