Look, I'm going to say what a lot of us cat lovers are thinking but are too polite to say out loud: If you get a cat and then just leave them outside all the time because it's "easier," you didn't get a pet - you got a yard ornament that you occasionally feed.
Your cat doesn't want to "be free" - they want to feel safe and loved. They want to curl up next to you on cold nights, not huddle under a porch hoping they'll make it until morning. The average lifespan of an outdoor cat is 2-5 years. Indoor cats? 13-17 years.
If you can't commit to keeping a cat indoors, don't get a cat. They deserve to be someone's beloved indoor baby, not a disposable outdoor decoration.

This should pretty much cover everyone.
ALL cats need to be spayed or neutered for a better life.

I started a new career at a company with a lot of stray cats. I never knew that this is a worldwide problem. I told myself to keep away from them because I fall so easily in love with animals........ and where do I find myself now? Being the cat lady at work, carrying cat food with me everyday and talking to them. And yes I gave them all names, as they also deserve to be alive just like all of us.
Us as employees got the T-N-R system into place and what a experience being part of the trapping of these babies. Feeding scheme into place (well actually just me and other 2 colleagues) which does affect our bank accounts, but its worth it.
I met incredible people in my whole process and its still a on going process, that I feel like I need to do my part as well. I want to make people aware of feral cats and the benefits it will be to take care of them.
What is a feral cat???
“- Feral cats are the result of a domestic cat being abandoned or lost and left to fend for itself. The offspring of the domestic (now considered feral) cat are usually never handled by people and become terrified. Many times, when approached by people, they will hiss out of fright. “ Humans are the problem here, NOT them!
I started to worry at night about this huge problem of cats being abandoned everywhere and I thought to myself, where do I start, this feels like I am fighting a loosing battle. But I read a quote on Facebook saying; “How can one person save a 100 cats? Easy, just spay one.” So I got inspired and my mission is at least to start with one cat at a time.
I hope just to inspire one person. If you cant save an animal, at least share the posts to make others aware. Lets get the word out there.
Each and every person working for a charity with these feral cats really inspires me. They are the kindest people you will ever meet, and I would love to be part of that. So here is my page, to at least get the word out in my area - Germiston. Starting small but hoping to save as many cats as possible.
