It’s great to see more and more local councils across Australia introducing 24/7 cat containment to reduce the number of pet cats roaming the streets.
Biodiversity Council member Prof Euan Ritchie spoke with ABC Radio Melbourne’s Brigitte Duclos about why this is a good idea; not only to protect native wildlife, but also for the health and wellbeing of pet cats and for human health.
Did you know that cats kept securely contained indoors or in a run live much longer and healthier lives with far fewer diseases and injuries than roaming cats, which can be hit by cars or attacked by dogs?
Even if they’re well-fed, most roaming pet cats kill more than 100 native animals each every year. Studies show that only 15% of kills are brought home, meaning owners are often unaware.
This interview was broadcast on ABC Radio Melbourne on 11 November 2025.
