I guess this is going to be quite controversial, but could we all please keep it civil .

Is letting cats out right/wrong, do you let your cats out? What are your reasons for this decision. Debate

I let my cats out, 2 reasons.. I like them to have their freedom and the fact that they both came from outdoor lives, I didn't feel it'd be fair to keep them locked inside. Lottie was a stray that spent the first 6 months of her life outside, and Leo spent the first 3 months of his life outside on a farm (he was in a right state, but thats a different thread).

We live in a quiet area with not a great deal of traffic so I don't feel that my cats are at too great a risk by going out and exploring the world. If I lived on a main road I probably wouldn't own cats as I feel that I'd need to let them outside. I don't think any less of anyone that does keep cats indoors, I'm sure everyone does what they feel is right for their cats

Those are my thoughts / opinions. Please keep it civil and on topic if you reply
