Doesn’t matter, they’re domestic cats and you already explained a circumstance where they could expose visitors and owners. Half the year here is a hospitable climate for outdoor recreation and cat survival. Half of it isn’t. I have seen these cats for multiple years so unless they have an outdoor cat house (something I have never seen in my life) then I suspect they come inside. The ratio of cat owners with outdoor cats is irrelevant. They exist and they are common. That’s enough to sink your assertions. |

It's extremely relevant when talking about a large enough scale of infection to support the attractiveness causation hypothesis posed by GP.

Outdoor cats generally stay underneath the house / porches, cars, etc. during cold or especially hot weather.

I'm disputing the above proposed hypothesis on the grounds I don't think it's common enough occurrence and we're lacking information.
