Cats instinctively kill birds and other small rodents. While I certainly see the appeal of outside cats the people arguing based on environmental concerns also have a point.
Additionally you should be really careful letting your cat out as it can get into something and then make you sick as a result
99% of cats are not native to wildlife in Europe or the americas. there are very very few specialised to their environment felines that look like housecats but it’s very few numbers (often dwindeling because of housecats). small feline != housecats or feral cats.
