I see that you agree that cats should be allowed to come and go as they please, but what if you live close to a busy street? Should I let em out so they can be free and dead? Sorry if it sounds rude. Now, if I lived in the country, sure, I would have him neutered and let him roam all he wants, but not in my house. Once hes outside, hes staying there.

indoor/outdoor? by: Anonymous
Kitties have been domesticated for a long time. They used to roam freely cause times were differant. We now have lots of ways for kitties to get hurt,vehicles,other animals(all kinds.even other kitties)With the disease out there just another ptoblem it has been proven indoor kitties live longer lives. I think it is great you want to have your kitty indoor only. Granted nothing could happen letting it out....but someday your kitty might never come back and you will never know what happened. 100% of my rescued outdoor kitties never try to escape outdoors.....even the feral, they know when it is good inside.(50)
Momma kitty does push her kittens away when it is time to be on thier own. My sister took a momma and kitten and she went thru that for awhile then got better. good luck!
