Should I get a gun and go down into the woods to kill every wild or feral cat I can find so it won't kill a rabbit or a quail? Dwindling wildlife? When's the last time you've been in the woods or my neighborhood? We are over run with squirrels, opossums, raccoons, birds. No house cat is ever going to catch more than one squirrel. And yes I have to confess that I have allowed my tom cat to actually catch and (shudder) eat mice that have invaded my home. Someone gonna call PETA? So no backing down, confining an animal to an indoor environment is inhumane. Cats are animals, not people. They are only one bowl of food away from reverting back to feral behavior. I can feed my cats a car load of kibble and they will right outside and stalk and kill and eat birds and mice. If that offends someone's sensibilities, then maybe you should get a lap dog (they eat cat shit by the way) or a tank of fish. Or is confining innocent fish a sin too?
