Broader adoption of keeping cats safe at home would have large benefits for cat welfare, human health, local wildlife and even the economy. So, should cat owners be required to keep their pets contained to their property?

The answer to the question is obviously “yes”.

    In my neighbourhood in the city, there’s some people who take their cat out in the park on a leash. I’ve done it myself. Though I also let one out on his own. He got spooked by a reindeer and then stayed inside for a whole day lol

    Mainly they were indoor cats though. I don’t think mine killed anything

      Walking your cat on a leash is pretty common here. I can’t even remember when I last saw a cat just roaming freely.
