55. Shakespeare
Shakespeare, go one all you want but I still think you are wrong.

Animals like people would prefer to have some freedom during part of the day rather than being cooped up 24/7.

Our cat enjoys going outside and he shows it. Most morning we let him out and he comes as goes as he pleases (when we come and go), then later in the afternoon/evening he comes back inside. Days we dont let him out he usually sits by a window and looks outside.

He enjoys being outside, and yes we understand that its more dangerous than just keeping him locked down all day, but its a risk we are willing to let him have for himself.

If something bad were to happen to him, well yeah it would be sad, but thats just life there are plenty of cats outhere looking for homes and he would eventually be replaced.

Better to have enjoyed a shorter life of more freedom than a longer boring life.
