A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.

Outdoor cats have a shorter average life span in cities, too. One big cause is cars. Also, it's worth noting that house cats are essentially an invasive species and do a lot of damage to bird populations.
It's pretty widely recommended to keep cats indoors.
Dogs have to be put on a leash when their outside, outdoor city cats should be too. Stops them from running away, and killing birds.
If your dog or cat runs away then you weren't meeting their needs.
It probably does happen occasionally on accident, like hunting dogs that pick up an interesting scent and then get lost, but I've never met a good pet owner who's pet ran away. It's always the guy who locked his dog in the backyard 16 hours a day and never thought of them as family, or the cat owner who put the car on a starvation diet hoping it would catch mice.
Can you take this “doubling down on some inane point” shit back to the R site though?
Sorry but people with braindead beliefs are on every social media. See: tankies on Lemmy
Well you also haven't intentionally looked into it, this is just your random experience; and since other people here are offering ADDITIONAL experience where those things DID happen, maybe you should fucking take that into account too. Or do you prefer only to learn from mistakes that you make personally?
