Killing Harmful Animals

Question:
He says: What is the ruling on killing harmful animals, such as cats and dogs and others, especially in the room and in the house? Is it permissible to kill them?

Yes, the one that causes harm is killed, but first it is driven away and warned against causing harm. If it continues to cause harm after being warned and driven away, and its harm cannot be stopped except by killing it, then it is killed. Yes.
