Most people do not realize all the outdoor perils that are dangers to kitties. Most people are aware of some and can list off a few, but they are not aware of the long list of outdoor problems that are out there for kitties. There are real and actual dangers that are associated with the existing outdoor perils. I know that if I need things to be spelled out for me, which I often do, that other people need things to be spelled out for them. Writing on this subject spelled things out for me, about the subject of outdoor perils and dangers for kitties. It's a sad, pathetic life that outdoor kitties have to live. No outdoor cat has nine lives--that is a myth because kitties don't live very long, outside. Unfortunately, at the present time, many cats are forced to be and are destined to be outside and I hope this unfortunate trend changes and sooner would be better than later.
