Keeping pet cats indoors would save millions of native animals and billions of dollars. So what's stopping us? - eviltoast

Broader adoption of keeping cats safe at home would have large benefits for cat welfare, human health, local wildlife and even the economy. So, should cat owners be required to keep their pets contained to their property?

The answer to the question is obviously “yes”.

    Try to keep non de-sexed cat indoor. I tried, no way it can work. In the end poor boy lost his balls.

      Balls vs literally thousands of wildlife. What a hard decision?

      Letting a desexed cat roam is literally hatred for this land. Do you want more feral cats? desex pets, it’s again basic responsibility.
