That is cruel. My friend keeps a rabbit in a large cage and I don't like it. I rescued my last two cats from the street and neither have had the desire to go out on to the terrace. They both love/d the indoor comforts!I have lived with cats my whole life. I could not continue being friends with someone who kept his cats locked in an empty bedroom 24 hours a day. That is animal cruelty so far as I'm concerned. Cats need to be outside even if just here and there, no different than his dog needing walks.
Yes and no. I hated it when our cats caught anything so we put bells on their collars. I grew up opposite huge woods in a massive house with a garden so they were allowed out then. I wouldn't here in Barca tho. It's too built up and he doesn't want to go out ever anyway !!I otoh believe that cats should be kept indoors. it grieves me when they kill something unsupervised. But they should have a physically and emotionally warm house or apt to live in; that much I also believe. The folks I know who had "indoor cats" had happy and well-adjusted animals. cn
