We had a freely roaming cat who spent nearly all her time outdoors. She lived over 20 years. And doesn’t anyone check the comic before posting? Somebody messed up the coloring.
The one thing cat people may envy dog people: the social gatherings.
There’s no dog park equivalent for cats. Mine hates any other cat and mistrusts any living being that isn’t prey to him. Something I can barely overcome by feeding I guess.
Become a pet-sitter! You’ll meet all sorts of cats, and dogs, and fish, and tortoises, and lizards, and birds, and even chickens!!! Of course, you need to be an adult to drive everywhere to care for the pets, and have insurance and be bondable. Also, some pets are a bit obnoxious around people other than THEIR people! And some actually behave better around the pet-sitter. I have lots of stories and beloved pets who are not mine, but are like family, and that’s how they think of me, as a family member. Best part? They are ALWAYS happy to see me!!!

Impressive. I know she’s into extreme sports. I didn’t know it included speed jumper changing though.

Tried walking our cat during a cross country road trip. It was a real drag

All of the above.

Please consider, cats want to go out ‘for a walk’ in the wee hours of the day.

I’ve always walked my cats on leashes. They loved it.

Nope. “Bingo” was a dog. Or was it the farmer?

There ARE cats who like to walk on leashes, but I’ve never met one of them…

Must be the Doppler Effect.

It’s just their nature to hunt. “Owners” should lock the little murderers up.

Siamese cats cost a lot of money & you have to apply.

The comments about cats and songbirds and especially feral cat being diseased are quite correct.

There are many good reasons which may or may not be the real reasons!
