[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]My mom’s indoor/outdoor cat lived to be 25.

I don’t think there is a one rule fits all. Some cats enjoy being outside and are generally safe. Others get scared, lost, or hurt.

Just be sure to get them spayed or neutered.[/quote]

I agree with this but too many cat owners think that their cat can't handle it. Yes sometimes things happen but if the cat lived a happier life that is better than living a bored longer life. [/quote]

Tell that to the ones picked apart by suburban coyotes.[/quote]

I still let my kids go outside, although they'd probably live longer if they weren't exposed to illnesses by other people and the risks of getting into a car accident.  Locking an animal in a house all day is a cruel thing to do.[/quote]

What an absurd false equivalency. You can train a child in safety measures, and drivers are on the look out for them. You can't train a cat, which drivers often simply can't see. The statistics for cats allowed to roam outdoors are grim.
