Broader adoption of keeping cats safe at home would have large benefits for cat welfare, human health, local wildlife and even the economy. So, should cat owners be required to keep their pets contained to their property?
The answer to the question is obviously “yes”.
there’s nothing logically controversial, it’s cat owners who can’t be bothered to care properly for their responsibilities. If you take a pet, it’s your responsibility. If you let that outside to murder the wildlife, it’s incompetence and malice. Cat owners just don’t want to take responsibility.
