Discounting multiple benefits of cat containment by reframing them as trade-offs: Response to Glanville et al. (2025) [PDF]

Animal Welfare
Domestic cats (Felis catus) are favoured companion animals, but also highly effective predators that have caused substantial declines and extinctions of native fauna in many places where they have been introduced. In Australia, free-roaming pet cats kill

Morphological patterns of pneumonia in free-roaming cats: a necropsy and histopathological study [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
BackgroundPneumonia is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in free-roaming domestic cats, particularly when associated with infectious agents and underlying systemic conditions. Post-mortem studies remain essential for characterizing pulmonary

Geospatial Model Suggests Sterilizing Free-Roaming Domestic Cats Reduces Potential Risk of Toxoplasma gondii Infection

Zoonotic Diseases
Although trap-neuter-return (TNR) is a popular method for managing free-roaming domestic cat populations, a common criticism is that sterilization fails to mitigate the public health risks posed by free-roaming cats.

Outdoor roaming of owned cats elevates risk of zoonotic pathogen exposure: A global synthesis. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens
Domestic animals play a central role in pathogen transmission at the human-wildlife interface. Domestic cats, in particular, are uniquely consequential in disease spillover dynamics due to their global distribution, large, human-subsidized free-roaming ...

Assessing the extent and public health impact of bat predation by domestic animals using data from a rabies passive surveillance program

PLOS Global Public Health, 2022
Domestic animals can serve as consequential conveyors of zoonotic pathogens across wildlife-human interfaces. Still, there has been little study on how different domestic species and their behaviors influence the zoonotic risk to humans.
