Inside vs Outside Cat

Should you let your cat go out?

There are lots of reasons for cats to stay indoors.

Inside Cats:

• have a life span of 12-20 years

• are not exposed to disease

• will not get abscesses from fighting neighborhood strays

• will not be threatened by dogs or wildlife

• will not suffer injury or amputation from leghold traps

• will not suffer from frost bite

• will not be hit by cars

• will not get lost

• will never go hungry

• cannot be abused by strangers

• are safe from chemicals and fertilizers

• cannot be stolen

Outside Cats:

• have a lifespan of only 1-5 years

• will be exposed to feline leukemia, AIDS, parasites, etc.

• will fight – causing expensive vet bills
