Cats, and apparently capybaras are an invasive species on social media. I don't hate them or anything but they show up everywhere in places they have new business being.

There are no native species that they are disrupting to be classified as invasive.

Maybe if there are not native species, they are invasive by default?

non-native doesn't automatically mean invasive.

The only native species on the internet are bugs but the cats don't seem to care for them.

They're just here for the mouse. And the ergonomically comfy keyboard!
