If you like these posts, please share one of your special toys! We've just passed 1,100 posts! This is my daily invitation to visit my website www.saidtheskinhorse.com - it's a site that celebrates the special relationship we have with our favorite toys from childhood. Here's one of our newest toys!

I have a bear named Oatmeal too!!

Their fur is the same color! They are even around the same age!

Two of the most frustrating types of people when it comes to pet care are people who either:

A- Think that pets have no will of their own and therefore anything and every single thing, a person does to an animal is somehow abusive. Because, in their mind, there's no possible way this animal could indicate it isn't like that or make the thing stop. ~ Example, people who think that putting a costume on a cat is inherently abusive. While completely ignoring all the cat's body language that indicates that AT WORST it's MILDLY annoyed or confused. ~ Example 2: People who think having a service dog is abusive, ignoring how any good handler will immediately retire their service dog to a regular pet the second the dog gives indication it's not enjoying the work.

And

B- People who think that the will of an animal should never be ignored or stopped because the animal must know better. So if your cat wants to go outside, you should just let it. It doesn't matter that literally shortens its lifespan by like four times. He wants to go outside there for you should let it. ~ Example: People who let their cat free roam outside, because it “makes them happy” completely ignoring how they're slicing their cat's lifespan to a FOURTH of what it should be. And that they're condemning their cat to a painful, slow, and lonely death. ~ Example 2: People who refuse to train their dog out of harmful or dangerous behaviors because “they're just friendly!” or “they just want to say hi”. And then act all surprised and indigent that their untrained dog attacked someone, or got attacked because you never put the care into properly socializing them, because “they're so sweet!” or whatever other bullshit you tell yourself to justify being lazy.

REAL. I also never realized the thing about cats being outside. Does that mean that they only shorten their lifespan if they are allowed to go wherever they want or does that mean that they are never allowed to be outside at all? I always thought that because they are animals that touching grass every once in a while would be good for them.

Great question!! I'm glad you asked.

Also after this point everytime I say you, or your cat, I am not talking about you specifically Avery. I'm instead saying you and your cat as my way of talking to the audiance as a whole.

Cats can go outside and it not only not be harmful to their health but actually be very healthy and enriching for them IF and only if, they're supervised, and or in an enclosed space.

People will builld little catios for their cats that have pet grade mesh lining so they can get some fresh air, see all the sights and smell all the smells without risking eating something they shouldn't or killing off the native birds.

I've also seen people get their cats little harnesses (it needs to be a harness don't walk your cat on their collar, it's NOT SAFE) and take them on walks, this is also great becase it's giving them exersize, and lets them exlpore the space around them in a safe way.

There's also people who will install cat proof fence toppers (it's like a roller that keeps them from getting over), and will allow their cat to play outside supervised. Now personally this I'd say is very much a case by case basis, some cats are VERY fast and talented at escaping open spaces, and as such would be at high risk of finding a way out. However if you have an elderly cat or a cat that can't easily jump or can't jump very high a fenced in backyard could be a very easy and benifitial way to get your cat some outside time in a safe way.

While allowing a pet outside will always have risks to it such as getting fleas, possibility of getting parasites, and (even with the most caution taken) a possible run in with a dangerous animal, if done correctly, the benifits can outweight the harm. Especially if your cat is prone to depression or anxiety being inside all the time.

There are also other ways to enrich your cat if those (catio, walking your cat, supervised outside time) aren't possibilities. Such as cat running wheels, finding things to bring in from outside that might have interesting smells on it. And plenty of toys that mimic their natural prey.

This is to say that the biggest risks to your cat if left to free roam outside, are stuff like cars when they try to cross the road (which if you live in any urban setting is garenteed considering cats can travel suprising distances from home, a half of a mile or more each day). Other free roam or feral cats that may be sick and therefore could get your cat sick, not to mention the risk of infection or mortal wound from a cat fight.

Then there's also dogs, even if free roaming dogs isn't common in your area, dogs still get out and get lost and then will likely become another animal that could easily kill or injure your cat. Not to mention how cats don't understand the idea of a fenced in yard, meaning any fence they cross or jump, or crawl under could be the yard of a very aggressive or high prey drive dog.

Even if your cat is able to get away from another animal trying to attack it, that doesn't mean it's safe. If a dog latches onto the right part of your cat's back, the cat can become paralized, and a paralized animal is easy prey, and it's harder for the cat to get home if it's back legs don't work.

Then there's all the things your cat could eat, if you can't watch your cat they could get into all types of food and trash that's harmful to them. They could get their head stuck in a bag, or can that then leaves them at risk of suffocation, dehydration or starvation, as they're unable to eat or drink. Or find their way home due to how htey can't see. An animal that can't see an attack coming, and can't see it's attacker is more likely to be killed and eaten by another animal.

Then there's the aspect no one likes talking about, but it still needs to be discussed, not everyone is nice, and there are plenty of people who either are apathetic to an animals suffering or worse, activelly enjoy causing harm to animals.

An animal free roaming has no one to protect it from, the 13yr old with the pellet gun, the grouchy neighbor that owns some traps and a gun, the neighbor that puts out poison to deal with rats, rats that can then be eaten by your cat, and die as a result, or the troubled person who takes their anger out on animals.

What I'm trying to say is, that it's not so much a case of outdoors bad and indoors good, but while yes keeping your cats inside will protect them and keep them far safer than they'd be if they were free roaming ouside, the outdoors isn't all bad, it can also enrich your cats life and provide plenty of exersize if you know how to do so safely.

This isn't to say that there isn't anything inside that could cause harm to or even kill a pet, it's more that you have far more control on your living space, and your actions in said livinv space, to keep it safe for your pet/s, than you do on the outside world.

You have no control if people litter, or if they leave plastic bags that once contained food stuffs on the ground or if someone in your neighbor hood just LOVES Lilies and plants them all over their garden. (If you aren't aware lilies are INCREDIBLY toxic to cats, and even if just some pollen gets on their fur and they lick that off during normal grooming, that can kill them).

Sorry for the wall of text, but I have A LOT to say on this topic, I've grown up practically always having a pet cat. And as such care deeply about their health and wellbeing.

Oh ok that’s what I thought. There’s always that one person that comments things like “please keep your cats inside” and then doesn’t elaborate what that means.

i made this (checks file details) 2 years ago and just forgot to upload it anywhere till now lol
