I know a guy who went through 5 cats in a few months because he was getting them, letting them out, and they were getting hit by cars since he lives on a super busy road that has heavy semi traffic.
It really reminds me of that one joke “I keep having to buy a new car because my neighbors dog keeps eating it” " it sounds like you’re just feeding cats to the neighbors dog"
Dude just didn’t seem to grasp simple addition that his new cat + outside in a bad area = squish
The only cat I’ve had that I’ve felt okay with letting roam was a stray that came to us declawed, so he was mostly harmless. We still ended up making him an inside cat because we caught him sneaking into the neighbor’s house to steal their cat’s food and poop in its litterbox.
Not a lot of coyotes in our neck of the woods, but the little orange moron kept writing checks with the neighbor cats that his disarmed front paws couldn’t cash, so he was always coming back with scratches. One of the other reasons we stopped letting him out.
I would never do it to a cat, but when this particular one wandered into my then-girlfriend’s house one night and decided he lived there, he was already declawed. He never seemed to suffer too badly from it, fortunately.
We actually found out when my wife was over visiting, and he came in through the cat door, locked eyes with her, froze, and slowly backed out of the house. 😅
Not to mention all the outdoor cats that are themselves killed or horribly injured.

Sounds like Pet Sematary.
What, he was like “huh Snuffy hasn’t been around for a few days. Welp, time to get a new cat I suppose!” every two weeks?

Declawed cats are a coyotes favorite meal. Big enough to feed the kids and cant even fight back

That is an oddly specific culinary preference for a wild animal to have.
Easy to catch fattened meals are a pretty clear cut preference
Is that how that works though? I don’t know anything about Coyotes, but I know things generally know better than to fuck with cats.
… Are you asking if a coyote can eat a cat?
Do you understand they hunt deer? Theyre not really worried about a cat with clawless arthritis, horn and hoof wounds are much bigger threats.
Predators dont know better than to not fuck with cats, most of them know to grab them before they get up a tree.
Declawing is cruel. It’s basically cutting off your first knuckle.

But what if he was a guest there? Maybe the neighbour’s cat told him “make yourself at home?” Did you even ask him? Psh …
