I'm not going to downvote you, but just because you know a lucky cat doesn't mean being outdoors isn't bad for the cat.
It's like hearing about some person who's reached 100 years old who has a cigar and a shot of bourbon every day and thinking that it's the shot and the cigar that caused the longevity instead of just the luck of the draw.

Yeah, I'm aware. I pretended to not see it because of all the people who would ignore it and consider your post confirmation that they can let their cat be an outdoor cat.
Fair point! Added more emphasis to that bit!
