[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]The farmers are not abusive and I really think they are more anchored than most of us are.[/b] The cats are animals and pets, but there is a line drawn and if that means cats outdoors, I can't accuse them of anything bad. I kept chickens right here in MoCo and they were outside all winter long. They never froze, even in our last bad winters. I was at a rabbit adoption thing at a local pet store and the "expert" said that rabbits needed to be indoors. I have had rabbits since I was a child right here in MoCo and they never came inside. They all lived for a very long time outside. The coats thickened with the colder weather. My dogs come inside, mostly for security reasons. Some of them would never make it through a winter because the coats are too short. However, my sister has a husky mix and that dog stays outside all year long. Partly because it likes that, but the shedding is crazy. These dogs were not bred with the expectation we would have nice vacuum cleaners. [b]The expectation is that most animals we call pets were expected to live outdoors, including cats. [/b][/quote]

I don't know what "anchored" means here, but in any case I don't believe that OP is a farmer, given that she lives in Potomac.

I don't know where your referenced "expectation" comes from.  Could you cite a source please?[/quote]
