I don’t know, a lot of people are pretty shit to their cats and the cats don’t seem to have much say over the situation.
If you’re like a happy cat with a nice place to live and freedom to explore or hang out at home according to your whims, that’s probably a pretty okay life for the most part. But if you’re an ‘indoor’ cat spending your entire life locked in a small space that may be cramped, dirty, or scary, that’s a pretty different thing.
The contradiction of pet ownership is kinda fucked. Like, how are you going to try to keep a cat who desperately wants to escape trapped inside and pretend it’s your buddy rather than your prisoner?
Same with people who have dogs that they just leave penned up or tied to a post all the time. How can anyone think that’s any kind of life?

Humans are monsters.
Yeah let’s just let them outside and kill all birds and get sick and shit. Brilliant.
I mean, you don’t actually have to take other species prisoner at all.
They’re a domesticated animal. Killing all the house cats in the world isn’t some collective good you’re doing to save cats.
So what, you just keep them locked up and anxious forever? Is that punishment for the birds?
Like, what’s your angle?
