Indoor cats, or irresponsible humans. No middle of the road in my book. Domestic cats have no right to venture into the wild, ever.
Between skin diseases, viruses and bacteria, this area is a cat disaster zone. Two siblings of Gnarly caught the 'gone in 24 hours' respiratory virus. We've got something like 20 common in the wild viruses here and probably another 20 bacteria, many of which are zoonotic. Our vet is very diligent and cautious. His once every 30 days check ups have saved a lot of cats lives, along with putting their people on track to getting themselves treated. Major common problems include Toxoplasmosis Salmonellosis Campylobacter Giardia Cryptosporidium, assorted worms and of course, rabies.
I'm considering a catio and playground. The vet suggests a double fence at least 1 meter feet apart. The prowling toms can squirt quite distance.
