Thinking about getting a cat. How hard is it to keep one outdoors (we have a backyard)? What else should I know about cats?

iirc average lifespan of indoor cat is 2x that of outdoor cat!

I’m not swayed by lifespan alone, and I do buy the argument that as natural predators they’re happier outdoors under natural conditions. But urban/suburban landscapes are very unnatural and they have very poor instincts around traffic.Low-traffic countryside would be different.

They are efficient murder mittens (and the risks to the cats themselves is much higher than keeping them indoors)

If outdoors, put some serious bells on their collar to give birds a chance...
