I would remind you that cats are an invasive pest that cause global mass extinction and locally devastate entire ecosystems. I would remind you that HOUSE CATS ALONE make up a category that causes more deaths to birds and mammals in North America – a place where they do not belong at all – than any other cause. I would remind you that the Earth has fewer than half the birds it did when I was born. I would remind you that cats who are left outdoors live significantly shorter lives and suffer more diseases and major injuries than indoor cats.
I would go so far as to suggest you are romanticizing the situation and relying on your own “common sense” rather than actually educating yourself on the risks and supposed benefits.
