34. Cats do not belong outside.
It is bad for the cats, especially but also on the wildlife. Dogs belong inside unless they are on a leash. I hate people who allow their dogs to run free on the beach. One large dog peed on my boyfriend while the asshole owner stood there and laughed. I told her to put her fucking dog on a leash or I would report him as a nuisance to animal control.

But domestic pets belong inside most of the time. Cats always (unless you can put them on a leash. Good luck with that).
