> Marra and Santella make some attempt to appeal to cat lovers by suggesting that cats be kept indoors and allowed to work off their excess energy on feline versions of hamster wheels.

Huh? A cat isn't a hamster, no way they will run in a hamster wheel. If you want your cat to run, you'll have to play with it.

Well.. cats can walk on a leash. I happen to do so on a daily bases, but it certainly is not comparable to walking a dog. The cat walks and sniffs around. It is the cat who determines where we go. Not the human. It is more often standing still as it is walking. Spending half an hour on walking 200 meters is not uncommon.

For the rest I'm not sure what the title on the article has to do with the content of it but OK. :)
