I'm going to be very upset...
I know cats love to run around and then come back for dinner--if the are still hungry. It's just that now there are 3 cats using the neighborhood as their playground and toilet. The good news is that they didn't pick my shrubs this time. The bad news is that the one older cat is always hiding underneath my car and most of the time I forget to look for him. It will make me positively sick if I run him over.
It's just not smart to let your cat run around here. The streets are not too busy, but we are in an area with a lot of woods and all the animals (and snakes) that come with that. A really big owl hunts around here often. Fortunately, no one has mentioned bears within a 10-15 mile radius within the last 5-7 years.
The other day my son ran outside to chase the cats that were fighting on our front lawn. They sit in my front yard and tease my dog. I'm going to talk to the owner of the old cat I know, but we don't know the other owners.
When we had a cat, he never got outside except on a leash. Don't these people like their pets?
