What happened in the vegan community?

I hadn’t heard about any of this until seeing that ToS post.

    The thing I’m wondering whenever I see this discussion is:

    Should a vegan have a pet that kills for fun?

    Should they keep it inside all day to stop it from killing?

    I don’t get why a vegan would want to have a cat at all.

      Unless you live somewhere with little native wildlife the general rule amongst conservationists is that cats should not be let outside. They have already contributed to the extinction of many bird species.

      That being said, in america, people let their cats out in general. In western europe, not so much.
