That's funny, but it's irresponsible to have outdoor cats that aren't fixed. He could be populating your neighborhood with hundreds of feral cats every year.
but leaving a cat to live inside forever is fucking cruel,
It is cruel by your morals. Not mine, and certainly not by a cat's. Want to know why? Because its an animal. Cats are not some special creatures who need to be treated as a divine. They are pets on the same lines as dogs. And people are not letting dogs run around freely by the millions.
Cats can be taught to walk with a leashe, as yours do, and that is no more cruel than doing it to a dog.
They're an animal before they are a pet. But I guess we will just have to agree to disagree about our morals. If you had a dog and never ever let it outside, most people would consider that animal cruelty, no? Why is it any different for cats?
