You're absolutely wrong. They're native to the region around Turkey, so it's not really an issue there. Everywhere else, it is. Yeah, a lot of third world countries don't give a shit because they have other problems to worry about. It doesn't make it not an issue though, and many countries have issues caused by them.
The cat that became the house cat is obviously what I'm talking about, not random distantly related species. I assume you know those aren't the same species, right?
