Seriously, wild life matters much much more, pets have no benefit for the ecosystem, actually a negative impact
It's time to change lifestyles, pets, x-mas, makeup, .. all those unnecessary things
Edit: answering one of your reply, I knew about their pest control effect, they were also used in old Egypt times against snakes. Now 'residential' cats impact mostly birds, lizards, some insects probably, which all is very bad.
But the worse of their environmental impact is from their consumption (their food, healthcare, ..). It's less than of a human, but still significant. I don't know how many tonnes of pets food are produced every year, and how many kilometers of transport they do on average, ...

This is a significant oversimplification of a complex subject.
Human life is a lot about things that are, in a way or another, "unnecessary". I'm not in favour of certain forms of pleasure (eg. "makeup"), however, they're part of human culture and they can't be removed in real world.
I have also the suspicion that you assume that a certain type of personality doesn't chase unnecessary things (hint: there are plenty).
At the end of the day, humanity as a whole balances, more or less consciously, the immediate advantages of those forms of immediate pleasure, against action against a perceivedly distant threat (if the perception was of an immediate threat, like, death tomorrow, things would surely change overnight), and chooses the former.
It's hard to say what could realistically shift the balance. Personally, I think the shift will start to happen when things will be considerably bad.
