Which part is animal cruelty? Increasing your pets' lifespans by
keeping them out of traffic, out of the yards of people who will poison
or shoot them, and out of fights with other animals who may be
diseased, or preventing the the killing of local native fauna?

Sorry, but I do think that people who are not willing to take
responsibility for their pets' safety and for their behavior probably
just shouldn't have pets.
