> most pets would run away and not come back if you were to open the "prison doors"

This is not true of any pet I’ve had. The dog was always gunning for an open door. And the cat enjoys unsupervised time outdoors when weather permits. They both always came home.

Also, cats aren’t truly domesticated. If there is a creature that “chooses” to live with us, it’s cats.
