    I don’t see how the comment you replied to, in any way, advocates for keeping cats locked up in a cage. They simply argue against letting your cats go outdoors. There is a middle ground between having outdoor cats and keeping them always locked up in a cage. Life’s not all black and white you know?

      I said according to their logic, not that they were advocating for that exactly, which said that cats should never be let outside because they are provided food and shelter inside and there was no other reason to let them out. The middle ground in my mind is being a responsible pet owner and if your cats are killing birds then don’t let them out. This is not always the case.
