Yes, I've seen so many beloved FREE and NATURAL kitties and cats
free and naturally dead on the roadsides, it makes me shudder.
Domestic cats are not wild animals and have no need to wander about.
Mine are perfectly happy in the house and go outside only with me
in the yard where I can watch them. In fact I have to coax them to
come out and they go right back in when the door's opened. 

And I expect to have them around for a long time. They are not subject
to juvenile delinquents (have I heard some horror stories!), wild animals,
viscious dogs, or cars and trucks.
