My wife has outside cats I have one that winters in my fur shed they eat my carcasses for me so they have a usefulness to the place. They are not big hunters no need to be, a few catch bullheads behind the house.
We don’t want any more cats but if sick or injured they get cared for if they die they die that’s life.

Being you brought up biting. Yes cats can still use this as defense. I'm glad your cat is usually gentle. Some people want their cat declawed strictly due to aggressiveness I don't reccomend that as often aggressive cats resort to biting which cat bites can be serious medically for people. Let me clarify biting...she just grabs ahold of you. In fact, we joke about the time she went a couple of weeks without biting anyone and we got concerned and took her to the vet, lol. For the record, I hate cats. This one just earned her life she has now.

The one reason I like the one cat that I winter in the fur shed is it comes if you call it by name. LOL This year he has a buddy a runt that would not see spring living outside. So ya I don’t like all cats but I do like a few.

We have two cats. Neutered but not declawed. They will come to me like dogs when I whistle. They go outside some in the day. Kill a few birds. Not as many as I killed with my BB gun when i was in grade school though. Seem to have plenty of birds around still. They kill a lot of moles, a few mice. Rabbit every year or so. I like them.
