But, that would be too responsible.
This applies to cats, too, but they're fuzzy and cute so maybe it doesn't.

At least they are not meat eaters.

That's a big difference IMO. They may be a nuisance, but they're not out there killing the indigenous wildlife. Feral cats can have a huge impact on small species because they love to have sex and are great at killing things.
