Name one major environmental AND pet welfare organization that supports keeping pet cats outdoors

[Feron]

86. It sounds great until..

a male cat starts spraying everything around your house.

And then there are the fights, the diseases, and the fact that cats are often a snack and/or toy for other animals.

I'm glad that your cat wasn't preyed upon, but two of mine were. I've also watched dogs kill cats for fun.

Another one of my cats was roadkill.

There are also sick fucks that like to harm animals. One of my cats was shot with a BB gun which caused a nasty wound. We were lucky in that it wasn't anything worse.

I bring nature to my cats. I grow cat grass that I occasionally put outside for a few days to acquire new smells. I let them sniff anything that has been outside like shoes.

I also bring in harmless bugs for them to hunt and snack on. I play with them. In other words, I try to give them an enriched environment.

Cats are awesome animals, but they aren't in any way like people. And people shouldn't project their desires on them.
