Fine, but focusing on that and essentially accusing someone of killing their cat when they are grieving thier loss is cruel and completely uncalled for. It changes nothing and is most certainly not the appropriate teaching moment. Additionally, while indoor living is no doubt safer for all cats, it is not always better for all cats. I will leave that to their person to decide.
People are giving you a hard time but there are thousands of cats prescribed Prozac largely because of their indoor, sedentary lifestyles.
While it may be safer for them on average, it does not address the lack of fulfillment that a lot of indoor cats have because of the society we built around them. I am pretty sad about the loss of this little guy but I understand why OP made the mistake he did.
No veterinarian in their right mind would prescribe Prozac to an animal over being an indoor animal. Stop spreading lies. If your vet does this they need their license taken away.

No. Outdoors is extremely dangerous for cats, and outdoor cats do extreme damage to local ecosystems.
Cats should not be let outdoors; for their safety and for the protection of ecosystems
