    I totally agree in a city context! However i live in the country side and my cat runs around freely in the field 🙂 she is missing a collar that she used to have for fleas, it was too dirty so we removed it but we should get another one now that summer is around the corner

      Don’t explain yourself. Just ignore them. Your cat is gorgeous, well exercised and most of all happy.

      In any context. It is not only for the cat’s sake, but for the life of everything else around’s sake. Cats wreak havoc on ecosystems, and they will also be exposed to more parasites and diseases outside, not just fleas. As well as predators such as coyotes or other various regional critters. Outdoor cats live nearly 3x less than indoor only cats.
