    I sincerely hope you go out and try to leash community cats.

    There are many feral cats who live in almost all our communities that don’t have a home. They don’t have people who care enough to house or feed them, not to mention leashing them when outside. They aren’t disposable.

    Animal abuse deserves punishment. Hard stop. I don’t know what kind of point you are fumbling for here, but I have a hard time seeing its relevance.

      ‘community cats’ wouldn’t exist if people actually cared for them in the first place and didn’t let them roam free. I bet you’d be vocal about ‘community dogs’ roaming free to do what they want. Cuteness should’t get a pass

        You’re preaching to the choir, friend. I work in animal welfare, and TNR and fostering feral kittens are my favorite ways to volunteer. I put my money and time where my mouth is.

        Keep in mind the context of the post.
