I live in the UK and we look after them. They live on average 15-20+yrs if they’re a good Hienz.

You don’t. A 2025 University of Edinburgh study analysed 12 previous UK veterinary investigations, revealing a stark 10-16 year lifespan gap between indoor and outdoor cats.

Post the paper. You have made an assertion and the burden of proof is on you.
Until you do it’s just bollocks.

Do your own fuckin work. Or better, don’t have cats because you’ll cut off two thirds of their lifespan. Here’s a link to disregard while continuing to be belligerent. Numpty fucks arguing with plain facts, this fuckin place is worse than reddit.
