What happened in the vegan community?

I hadn’t heard about any of this until seeing that ToS post.

    The thing I’m wondering whenever I see this discussion is:

    Should a vegan have a pet that kills for fun?

    Should they keep it inside all day to stop it from killing?

    I don’t get why a vegan would want to have a cat at all.

      Unless you live somewhere with little native wildlife the general rule amongst conservationists is that cats should not be let outside. They have already contributed to the extinction of many bird species.

      That being said, in america, people let their cats out in general. In western europe, not so much.

        Could you please tell that to the people living in my corner of western Europe? Would be nice not to have to shovel car sit out of my garden anymore.

          cats live far longer and healthier on average when kept inside. Even most vets (atleast in europe) recommend it.

          Also, please keep lemmy civil.
