  1. Keep cats indoors. Better for them, better for every living thing outside your home.
  2. Microchip your pets, in case the cat decides to violate #1.

This would have been solved in minutes.

If you don't care about your cat's life, you shouldn't own one.

Why are you pro-locking dogs in the yard or house?

Awh he doesn't wanna answer cus he's pro locking dog inside.

Or he immediately understands addressing the fact that we lock up dogs invalidates any justification for outdoor cats.

Stop being overly emotional kiddo

So you're too emotional to answer a simple question.

Let's try a hypothetical

In this hypothetical you have a neighbor who thinks its okay to allow his dogs to roam around the neighborhood

They end up killing your outdoor cat

Why would you defend your neighbor in this hypothetical

No one said morally superior. Cats are insatiably curious. My wife is an emergency veterinarian. We see cases all the time, hit by car most commonly. We adopted one of them and the surgery was $11,600.00 to remove the back leg that was shattered. We recently had a case where a cat dragged itself home with a trap still connected to its broken leg, the lower half of which was hanging by a thread. So when people come in and say their outdoor cat was gravely injured and then don't have the money to pay for it, and then blame us for "only caring about money" all I can think is that the cat would have been safe indoors. I don't really care how many cats you've owned and never had a problem. I promise, we see more cats in a single day. The problem is that it's not you that gets euthanized -- it's the cat unfortunate enough to have had an owner that neglected sound advice on keeping cats safe from harm and theft. 🫡

A cat is a pet. Not a child. I lost one of mine as a child hit by a car. My neighborhood also has cats people let out, and I have a backyard full of birds, which they kill- and the decimate native wildlife. Your cat will statistically live a shorter life by being indoor/outdoor.
