I'm a cat person and take no joy in the idea of hunting them, but as an invasive there's not much that's more destructive. Songbirds, lizards, small mammals, etc can be wiped out in short order. We forget Fluffy is an apex predator, only tiny.

In America, we're more densely populated and hog hunting is big business and a favorite pastime. Australia just doesn't have enough people to get control of the problem, probably ever short of clever gene editing of their prey or something. Hunting won't do it any more than it's controlled hogs here. Local success for vulnerable species is probably the best they can hope for.
