As a reflection of how content is often skewed heavily by American audiences & creators, I was surprised to find out that the perception that cats should be indoor only is a uniquely American and perhaps, Aussie one.
In Europe & in Malaysia it is not unusual at all to find indoor/outdoor cats.
The reason why is probably a few things. In US & Oz, the local fauna is being devastated by cats. Also, the wildlife can kill #cats.
