Re: Cats and dementia

[ariakas]

Responsible cat owners only have indoor cats tho

Re: Cats and dementia

I politely disagree.

Farms and barns especially benefit from outdoor cats.

I have a cat but I live in the city, so whenever I take him out I've either got him on a leash/harness or in a bag. Sometimes when I can't see the ground clearly (like a gravel road), I carry him in case of broken glass, etc. I'd give him cat slippers but it limits his movements.
He also knows how to navigate in the forest (and how to climb a tree in case of an emergency).

You can take cats outdoors but you have to be responsible and vigilant, just like with dogs.

I'd agree with ariakas that city cats should be kept indoors, though. They hunt the birds that I've got a bird-bath and bird-feeder for (and had to discontinue), they defecate in my lawn and/or garden, and more than once I've seen the poor dumb cat who didn't successfully negotiate traffic, and it just makes me angry that their owners didn't look after it.

Re: Cats and dementia

I think the"they hunt birds" argument is a little ridiculous because I 'll bet that the dead birds that broke their necks against your windows vastly outnumber the ones killed by cats.

Re: Cats and dementia

[(Anonymous)]

That's actually provably untrue - areas with a high outdoor cat population, particularly islands, have a much, much higher rate of songbird mortality than comparable areas where the outdoor cat population is better controlled. They're actually hell on a lot of small animal populations in general, since they're very efficient predators, and are an invasive species in most areas of the world.

Re: Cats and dementia

nayrt but I occasionally let my cat in the yard in my quiet residential area. Yes, he kills animals. What kind of animals? House sparrows, which are invasive species, and bunnies, which are ridiculously overpopulated in town due to lack of predators. If anything, my cat is doing the local ecology a favor. While cats can absolutely have an affect on native species, those numbers are VERY skewed because in-town ecology is very different from out-of-town. Those poor songbirds? Likely invasive themselves.

I think you should Google some of the stats on that before you wager any money on that bet.

Half to two-thirds of birds who clunk your windows die within 24 hours.
