It probably does a better job of getting the point across to a general readership than if they'd used overly technical domain-specific jargon about quantity of cases and speed of its spread.

We need lock downs, a wall, 100% containment. Full vaccine mobilization. Starship must be expedited. A world without cats is not a world at all.
A world with cats is a world with billions of dead birds and small mammals. Without them we will have even more insects. So this time cats won’t protect us from diseases by killing the carrier, these time they help the carriers
Everything is spreading. We're a large interconnected world, and we'll inherit everyone's problems eventually. There are better alternatives, but it's not something people will seriously consider.
Not having cats is an option that is not seriously considered. Dogs are even worse. Make them shit in your own backyard please. If you are a city dweller please do not keep “pets”, it’s bloody ridiculous, thank you.

Wouldn’t we have less insects because of increased bird, rodent and spider growth?
Driving in the eighties with windscreens full of insects, and now hardly anything, and a lot less of the things that lived on them.
> “I’m convinced that half of the human cases that come from cats are people who are trying to stuff pills down their cat’s throats to treat the sporotrichosis,” Do yourself a favor, crush the pill and put it in food. Problem solved. Difficult with multiple cats but I had two and one needed medication so I put this little guys on a window sill he loved to perch on which the other cat didn't care to reach.

There is also a TV adaptation that came out on Netflix a few years ago.
