What? The cat ran outside and you forgot about it? 😧
Full Story
My cat is fine, she wants to wander outside all the time, sometimes you don't even notice that she slipped outside when someone opens the door. There's some bushes in my front yard that she hides in for safety.
Last week, my cat spent the night wandering outside. Then at 3-5 AM next morning, my mother woke up to a loud cat meow and opened the front door to check. There it is, my cat dashing toward the door. She slipped outside the night before when the door was opened.
Firstly, unless every single person that enters your house stays fully vigilant, you can’t expect that the cat never gets out. Secondly, yes letting it out is bad for the wildlife, but I fail to see how it’s bad for the cat itself to be outdoors.
Well my cat once got out for less than a day, came back with feline leukemia, infected her sister, and they both died long before they should have.
But yes, I expect anyone at my house to be vigilant about not letting my animal(s) outside.
Also, they can get to fights with other cats or other animals. So that's another danger, not to mention getting hit by a car or getting stolen. We're getting picked up a animal control and you not knowing where it is. There's a lot of things
