Facts About Cats...




Contrary to popular belief, our feline companions don't need to be let out at night in order to be happy. Many people still cling to the myth that cats need to be let outside at night to roam the neighborhood, hunt mice, harass other cats, and do everything else your typical alley cat does. Some would even go as far to say it's cruel to keep your kitty inside all the time!

Sadly, the opposite is often true. Cats allowed outside live significantly shorter lives than indoor-only cats. They catch diseases like Feline Leukemia and are injured by wild animals, dogs, other cats, and even cars. They eat things that can be harmful. They pester your neighbors and their pets. Perhaps worst of all, they reproduce if not spayed or neutered, creating another litter of homeless kittens, many of whom could end up being euthanized by animal control.
