We don't allow our housepets outside. The only time they go outdoors is
on an annual or other trip to the veterinarian.

Why are you denying your animals the ability to experience nature. Or,
have they told you they like sitting at the window watching the world go
by just like prisoners do?

Our pets live long, happy, healthy lives, without concern over their
next meal, or where to stay warm and dry, and safe from being hit by
cars on nearby roads or shot by morons with guns. The roads down here
are littered with the carcasses of deer, raccoons, dogs, foxes, cats, et
cetera.

Do you count yourself as one of the morons with guns? If no, why not?

I was driving to the movie theater last night and there was an 8 point
buck dead in the middle of a divided 4 lane road. It is a common site.
And, it is due to the lack of management of the deer herds.

Our pet Maine coon cat, for example, a kitty we rescued from the
outdoors, decided in one day he never wanted to go outdoors again. If he
is near a door that leads to the outside and it is opened, he runs in
the other direction. This is a tough cat, by the way, who is very strong
with great teeth and claws. Though he is just a cat, he knows he's got
it made with us, and has no need for a short, dangerous life outside.

Our cat, the offspring of a barn cat enjoyed the hunt. He spent most of
his days out chasing down rabbit, moles and birds. But, in the end he
turned into an indoor cat. It seems that his abusive ways caught up with
him when he could no longer beat up the younger cats in the
neighborhood. The younger cats took to sitting on our front steps
looking in our side lights for our cat.

One of our neighbors down the street had a pretty Springer spaniel they
allowed out in their fenced yard. The dog dug his way out, to
"experience nature," as you termed it, and was found dead by the side of
a nearby road two days later. What he experienced was getting hit by a
car or truck.

Our male Beagle is an escape artist. When he escapes he can be a mile
down the road in minutes. If he gets hit, he gets hit. He is after all
an animal. The female Beagle knows she has a good thing and she will
bark and whine when the male escapes but, she won't step off of our
property unless she is on a leash.

No thanks.

That's what you say but, we have no way to verify it.

If you broke into our house some night and brought your dog with you,
the dog would still be alive.

Well, for accuracy, it's *her* house.
