Unless you live in an area that has native small wild cats, then feral or pet house cats are an invasive species that destroy small mammal and bird populations. And if you live in an area where small wild cats are native, then it’s probably best to not let house cats compete with them and reduce the wild population. There’s really no ecological argument to allow house cats to roam in any environment.
