On Outdoor Cats and Human Negligence...

My thoughts and frustrations regarding this subject. Sorry for my poor english in this video, it seems as my english vocabulary fails me when I am very upset.
Negligence: Failure to take reasonable care to avoid causing injury or loss to another person.

@the89boi I highly doubt you are gay but even if you were you would be the first homophobic homosexual person I have met. It is sad. In fact your attempts at trying to prove this are not credible in the least, but as I said in my message I have no interest in having this discussion with you. You are being offensive and insulting my friends with derogative, hateful and even bestiality comments. Please just stop. I don't have the will or time for this kind of exchanges. Goodbye.

@porolita22 Perhaps he is gay and a bit of a jerk. Does that mean he's homephobic? Given his treatment of your friends, I understand why you blocked him.

[porolita22]

@truevoiceofsanity I really don't care if he really is gay or not at this point, I have blocked him again :-/ you can have your argument in your separate pages, sorry for that :)

I'm sorry you feel so frustrated about this person's irresponsibility, but I hope you are not blaming yourself for this. People are stubborn and the animals are the ones who pay for it. It's very unfair. I keep my cats inside and they are 11 and 8 and in great health. I take them out on a harness and leash sometimes and they enjoy it a lot.

[thestreetsempty]

Poor thing. That is absolutely terrible. Why adopt an animal into one's home and then not even allow them in the home? The whole reason people rescue animals is because we're nurturing and want to help someone. Adopting an animal is like adopting a child. You're their parent and have to protect them. There are roads, cars, other animals... you have to watch them, like a child. If that was a child, that person would be in jail. Why shouldn't that apply to guardians of non-human animals?

@fishncapt26 Peta bullshit? If you bothered to watch any of my videos you would see that I don't support Peta. But even if I did, you don't have the right to come insult me out of the blue. I don't care for your batshit insanity, please take it elsewhere if you can't behave like a civilized person.

@DJSexLeopard poor baby... :( my heart breaks for all the homeless cats, there are so many. I feed 2 stray cats but can't bring them inside because I already have 5 and it wouldn't be good. But I am trying to find them a home with someone that might adopt them. It's complicated.

This made me want to cry..

my cat comes home every afternoon to his food + water and we give him lots of love. we tried keeping him inside and he went crazy meowing but eventually found a way outside every chance he could. ps, he is HUGE. some cats are outside material, some arent. every cat is different.

im sorry bout your kitty

[CosmicLilly]

my cats LOVE being out. I can never take that away from them. its not negligence, because if i leave them in they become very very bored, depressed and dont have the space to play like outside (in my backyard) they begin to knock things off shelves and break vases which can hurt them real bad chasing each other and fighting... & i cant stop them, they dont listen haha i love them, and if they do ever get sick, i go straight to the vet!

[thevakoffski]

For some reason I don't have an opinion on this. Maybe I did not understand. I always thought cats were different than dogs. I always let my cat outside then I brought her in everyday. She never ran away but then again, I was lucky. In Guatemala though, its probably different. I hear people have no respect for animals there (cats and dogs)

[TBgamer4life]

HAHHAHahahahahaa you fucking bitch, this is the rule of thumb: cats who are used to outdoors and are happy with it should not be locked up anymore because it kills them emotionally and physically... indoor cats who are not used to being outdoors... they must be kept outdoors and your numbers are fucked up, my lovely outdoor cat is 17 years old, still thriving and alive and fights with other cats (which is natural and normal). also, in cities like NYC you shouldn't have cats lol

[RinaArlingMedia]

well spoken... Happy to hear i m not the only one thinking the same way. I live with 3 cats, 1 from good home but 2 saved from street life with lots of worms and problems with full neglect. After lots of medical attention..it would not pop my mind to risk their lives (or mine) to all deceases they might get from out side if roaming there by them self. the tame cat i take out with leash, rest of the team can interact safely true metal net with other kitties. Sorry for your loss (of the cat).

@BigChiefMike The only days he doesn't go outside is when it is raining and then he pretty much sleeps or follows me around.
