Hi here& #39;s your regular reminder from me, a person who rescues cats and loves cats and devotes most of their life to helping cats: cats should not be allowed outdoors unsupervised no matter what, it& #39;s bad for the cat and it& #39;s bad for the environment and it& #39;s overall just bad!

And before you can reply

1. No, cats don& #39;t "need" to go outside you don& #39;t understand cats
2. No, your cat won& #39;t die of unhappiness if it doesn& #39;t go outside you don& #39;t understand cats
3. No, "a short full life is better than a long boring one" isn& #39;t true you don& #39;t understand cats

Cats are domesticated animals and if you wouldn& #39;t let your dog wander around your neighborhood unsupervised and shit in your neighbor& #39;s gardens then why would you let a cat do it? Oh right because you don& #39;t understand cats

Cats left to wander outdoors negatively impact the ecosystem by killing songbirds, amphibians, reptiles and small mammals. Letting your cat outside unsupervised is destroying your local ecosystem& #39;s biodiversity! And no cats don& #39;t NEED to hunt again you don& #39;t understand cats

By the way!! I am totally in favor of supervised outdoor time for cats! In fact I& #39;m in the process of building an outdoor enclosure for my cats. Harness training is great too!
