      Or release the cat outside, where it is promptly either hit by a car or hunted by larger predators, as it lacks any survival skills for the outdoors.

        PETA sucks, but let’s not imply house cats can’t survive outside. They are excellent at it and devastating for local animals because they are so great at living outdoors and killing.

        We shouldn’t let house cats outside. Partly for their own benefit, but also definitely for the local fauna’s benefit.

          Kitties must stay inside to be safe, also to make it easier for me personally to find them and give them kissies on their little soft heads.

          Dependant on location of course

          Do your research - if you have native small cats and few large predators (ie Europe, North Africa) it’s probably fine. If you don’t (ie Australia, America) then it’s definitely not
