All cats should be indoor cats
Shame on everyone in this thread that wants to have an argument about indoor v outdoor cats. 99 problems this isn’t one we need to pull out the torches for.

If you want to give your kitty companion the best shot at a long comfortable life, keep them indoors, it's as simple as that.
Leads exist, and so do catios and window boxes if you're lucky enough to have the space, they can still enjoy the sunshine and fresh air without risk of them getting run over, attacked by another animal/person, getting injured otherwise. I know I just couldn't bear it if my baby was outside all on her own and got hurt..
I'm guessing your American? If you try finding a rescue cat for indoors they won't let you have one. Most cats in the UK and any given by charities are outdoor cats.
So everyone insisting on one of the other is being very... Annoyingly ignorant!
As an American, I have never seen an animal shelter adoption contract that didn't have a clause about never letting the cat outside. Obviously there are exceptions for leashes and catios, but you get the idea

Yeah I only know this viewpoint from posters in the US. In Europe I only know the prevailing notion that keeping cats indoors is cruel and they should be outside. Exceptions for large cities ofc but I only know social pressure to get cats out, not keep them in.

I dunno, sometimes my indoor cats step into the liminal dimension just to make me panic
