I am not a cat owner, but I did find your poll a little harsh.

In just the same way bad owners spoil dog breeds... the same happens to indoor/outdoor cats.
A few rotten apples shouldn't spoil it for everyone.

And your comment about TNR, wow!!
Do you realize exactly what those people do?
The time, money, blood (literally) sweat and tears they put into doing that all because the REAL irresponsible jerk dumped a few cats off thinking they would be able to take care of themselves on their own??
THERE... there are your irresponsible jerks ... the people that dump the cats that end up forming colonies that people work their asses off to TNR.


My parent's have a beautiful Maine Coon names Leroy and he is an in/out cat. They are responsible owners and had him neutered and gets shots every year and he has 5 acres to himself and he sleeps inside everynight!

So to answer your poll... my parent's cat is an indoor/outdoor cat but they are by NO means irresponsible jerks.
So I guess that makes them responsible jerks!
