Allowing your cat(s) to roam outside exposes them to far more dangers than benefits - not just for their own safety, but also for the well being of the environment around them. Outdoor cats face countless threats, including predators, harsh weather, and, heartbreakingly, cruel individuals who may cause them harm. These are dangers no cat can truly defend themselves against.
The following video link, shared by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), reveals just a glimpse of the heartbreaking realities that feral, lost, or outdoor cats endure - especially when they cross paths with the wrong people.
That is why both PETA and your friends at Whiskers, Paws and Love are urging you to please keep your cats indoors, where they can be protected, cherished, and kept safe from harm. Your care truly can make all the difference in their world.
