A yard, for a cat?? So Germany is just promoting destruction of native birds and mammals like that?

“Must have a yard” meanwhile Germany’s native small mammal populations are struggling due to domestic cats

Why are they letting cats outside if they’re so strict on their welfare cats don’t live very long outside. They shouldn’t need a yard cause they shouldn’t be outside.!!!

I don’t agree with the yard rule. No way I’m letting my precious babies out.

I’m all for strict adoptions but a cat doesn’t need a yard! Indoor cats live so much longer. I used to take one of my cats out on leash but now with bird flu, I don’t even feel comfortable doing that anymore

It’s also illegal to declaw. Sadly still common practice in the US

I kind of like the yard rule. At least an outdoor space. Cats aren’t meant to be trapped inside houses, as much as North Americans think this is true, it’s just a trendy thought that’s actually cruel.

People in these comments are really acting like “having a yard” means letting cats free roam.

tbh in rural areas it's seen as a crime if you don't let them outside. their lifespan could be much shorter but I see how happy they are playing outside

These protections and policies need to be adopted by other countries!

That is weird. Letting cats outdoors shortens their lifespan from insect bourne disease, other animals (fights), cars, etc, so a yard should be irrelevant. And most cats prefer to be the only pet, unless they're a bonded pair since kittenhood.

The only thing I disagree with, is the yard. My cat is not going outside!

Germany sounds like my cat’s version of hell. She wants nothing to do with other cats and outside scares her and she becomes a fainting goat.

It seems so backward that they’d care so much about proper care but then still require a small but hugely damaging amount of neglect like letting them outside.

How many animals are euthanized because they won’t let people adopt?

U.S. cat adoption laws vary by state. Some states hardly enforce laws and there are strong laws in a few states like Florida’s new law with up to 5 years in prison for people who abandon pets during disasters
