I've thought about this
I'm totally with you in terms of wildlife, but we live in low-rise housing in an inner city. Most of the wildlife is rats, mice and foxes. The foxes worry me when it comes to our cat. Roads and railways also concern me but because we live in a house the doors and windows are often open so she's going to get outside at some point. I think the responsible thing is to chip and spay her anyway and see if she's happy to be a house cat. If she's always desperate to get out she will at some point.
