[A study] show[s] [that domestic cats] eat more than 2,000 species globally – including hundreds that are of conservation concern.

My mom has several cats and I tried to tell her this but she insists “this is just what cats do” and it is the natural order for cats to roam free outdoors. She thinks people who say cats belong indoors are out of touch with reality.
If someone tried to keep me in a house for the rest of my life I’d probably try to kill them. What would you do?
Yeah, but you’re not a cat. That is not the behavior of a well socialized, well taken care of cat.
I get that you don’t like the idea of pets, but equating indoor cats to a person being kidnapped is pretty disingenuous
