However i live in the country side and my cat runs around freely in the field 🙂 she is missing a collar that she used to have for fleas, it was too dirty so we removed it but we should get another one now that summer is around the corner permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] spirinolas@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago Don't explain yourself. Just ignore them. Your cat is gorgeous, well exercised and most of all happy. permalink fedilink source parent [–] iamthetot@piefed.ca 8 points 5 months ago (1 child) In any context. It is not only for the cat's sake, but for the life of everything else around's sake. Cats wreak havoc on ecosystems, and they will also be exposed to more parasites and diseases outside, not just fleas. As well as predators such as coyotes or other various regional critters. Outdoor cats live nearly 3x less than indoor only cats. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] HeHoXa@lemmy.zip 4 points 5 months ago Gaia: Look at me. Look at me.
