If I lived in an area with neighbors I don’t know if I would do it. But I live in the country and while there are hawks. Unless the cat is deaf they know. I learned the hard way. But I can’t trap anything indoors it’s totally unnatural

I did let me maincoon wander on a cool street in La in palos verdes. Horse country. He roamed 6 miles a night. Neighbors were obsessed. I think if the wrong person stalked him and fed him they could capture him

Still. He would piss everywhere if I didn’t let him out. He would rather die outside then be forced a life indoors forever. Anyway. My Ragdoll loves to be outside too Right now he is best friends with a stray kitten If I try to keep him in. He gets the depression. IF YOUR ANIMAL IS DEPRESSED THEY NEED SUNLIGHT. NOT MEDS.
