Basically most people think it’s mean to keep them inside and refuse personal responsibility for what that cat gets up to when it kills local wildlife and ends up in the cat walk between my house half eaten with intestines strewn about by coyotes.
Edit: but we’re international so I should consider locations where cats aren’t an invasive species.
They are where I live, it’s illegal to let them out. Not enforced however.
I’m glad that most don’t seem to think that way where I live, but yeah some do, despite all rescues, shelters, and vets being united on the message that cats shouldn’t be let out to free roam.
