It’s getting to that time of year where people become overly rude to me about Chippy being outdoors. So here we go:
- Chippy knows how to get home (and does) when he’s too cold.
- There is a heated cat house on my porch.
- The days that I know the temperature will get too low, we go pick him up.
- He has friends who willingly let him stay over.
We go through this every year where I get attacked, accused and called a bad cat mom. That boy does not care what the weather is, he loves the outdoors. I have had others claim they can “keep him indoors” and “make him an indoor cat” or “give him a better home”, and I have let them try. It all ends with the same outcome. Chippy will p**s, poo and destroy everything he can if he is kept in against his will and will get out anyways.
I know the dangers of having an outdoor cat. I know the outcome may end badly. But I will NOT make Chippys life miserable by forcing him to stay indoors. He loves the outdoors and he loves this community.
And if you have something negative to say, people message me privately. Just know that I work 5 days a week and having nursing classes 3 nights a week. I am trying my best.
Sorry for the rant
Thank you ❤️
