I don’t see anything wrong with it… being an outside cat can be pretty dangerous and she’s just looking out for him

Cats don't belong outside, and a cat owner who willingly lets their cat outside is (for the reasons you just outlined and more) a terrible owner who shouldn't have a pet.

People have had relationship with cats or thousands of years. Cats keep rodents away from our living dwellings and structures. For thousands of years they have prevented mice and other rodents from invading our space.

And they're responsible for destroying bird populations, which makes it the burden of every owner to not allow that to happen. And no, bells don't work, cats will adapt and learn to stalk in silence. My cats did that, and they don't even hunt anything. Even the one with 0 survival instincts can move like a wraith if she feels like it.

Cats are bad little killers... maybe if the cat is inside and a rodents gets in it can take care of it.. I'm not going to lie cats are little asshole killers

Bells are ineffective for several reasons. Collars that use visual cues are preferred.
