People who think cats only beling indoors have zero understanding of cats

Ignore this poster. (I'm sure you already are.) Thank you for feeding this cat.

Why ignore? They do so much damage! I’m not advocating for euthanizing them, but all you’re doing is promoting a nuisance. It’s like feeding raccoons, if raccoons were also environmentally disastrous.

I get it, but my plan is to get him to trust me to become indoors only.

Then go get him and bring him in! Today. A 13 year old cat is a senior cat (and he might be older than that). The poor guy doesn't have that much longer, especially living outside.

Stop it with the "Oh, I just want to get him to trust me first" nonsense. The cat already knows you and recognizes you as someone who feeds him. It's hot outside, and he needs to be wary and alert all the time outdoors. And he's old. The poor thing. Once you just bring him in, he'll be so happy and relaxed in a few days.

Please don't just go away without bringing him in first. Let this poor old cat spend his remaining time in comfort and safety.

It's a stray cat, not an outdoor cat.

And cats HELP with rat and mice control. You're batshit nutty, pp.

Not all cats kill rats - all cat food attracts rats.

Also, the cats kill birds and snakes that could naturally control the rats. Owls and raptors are much more effective.

What you don't realize is just the scent of a cat nearby is helpful to keep rats and mice away. The cat doesn't even need to hunt them.

Cats are a treasure. We have a few stray cats in my neighborhood - I'm grateful for them. And the birds seem to be doing just fine.

Cats are a treasure - inside!

The birds are not okay - those cats are killing hundreds of birds. Owls and hawks and foxes can manage the rat population if you stop luring them with cat food… and stop letting the cats kill the birds. There’d be a lot less bugs as well.

Apparently the damage caused to birds far outweighs the benefits of rodent control.

Thank you OP for taking care of the animal, who does a lot to take care of your neighborhood from the rodents.

I’m not a bird person, I’m a person who is shocked at how many birds one cat can kill. I love cats - find them a home.

You... think there are lots of empty spaces at shelters for stray adult cats?
