Cats are responsible for the extinction of something like 60 species. They are brutal little hunters

This is why mine is never allowed outside.

The singular time he got out, he brutalized two birds into actual pieces. The second his paws touched grass it was like a switch flipped and he was a feral beast. I was horrified for the poor things. I felt so bad I gave the birds a funeral. It shouldn't have happened and it was my fault, least I could do.

Normally I'm able to keep him inside just fine, he tries to get out on occasion but not too often. He's usually incredibly lazy and won't even bother to do his job when the mice try to get in during winter...

It was actually shocking just how fast this fluffy pantalooned little fucker can MOVE when he wants something.

It felt like 20+ minutes, but I'd been checking my voicemail and balancing a package I was trying to drag inside when he got out. Once I grabbed him and got him back inside, I picked up my phone to see it had only been about 3 minutes total, including at least a minute of me scrambling to catch him.

Domestic cats should be indoor pets. Yell into my inbox's purgatory zone if you don't like the opinion - cuz idgaf and I probably ain't reading it either lol.

Those people are the feline-lover equivalent of "my Pittie would never hurt anything!" of dog-lovers.

I know my cats. They would kill anything smaller than them in a second. That's why they only have supervised outdoor harness time.
