I’m a cat owner but probably will never get another one. Definitely not if I move back to Australia.

  An indoor-only cat kills no birds. Bonus points for spaying/neutering.

    In my case I haven’t been able to manage indoor only but I’m sure others are able to.

      Can your cat operate door locks or something? It really isn't difficult to keep a cat indoors only.

        Luckily I've never had a cat with an opposable thumb (whew!). But where I live in california there is a highly permeable interface between indoor and outdoor, with no screens. Most of the year there are doors and huge windows open all day unless nobody is home. In other words, I don't have a lifestyle that could feasibly restrict a cat to the indoors. When I lived on the 5th floor of a city building, yes. Other than that: no.

    An indoor-only rescue cat takes a cat off the street, keeps it from killing wildlife, AND gives it a better life.
