Bring your cat indoors before it’s too late

Researchers say indoor cats can live 15 to 17 years on average, while free-roaming cats kill up to 22.3 billion mammals a year.

When police in Salem, Ohio, received a call for assistance for an injured cat, they couldn’t have been prepared for what they found. He had been shot with a crossbow, lost the use of his legs and, with the bolt still lodged in his body, lain in agony for days before a kind person discovered him. Despite the shocking nature of this crime, it was only one of many reported instances of cruelty to cats outdoors just this summer.
