I posted a while ago about if I should let Kiba outside seeing she meows so much.
Well, turns out she loves to be outside more then anything (maybe not ANYTHING..) but she does like it a lot. I don't want her to be an outdoor kitty because for one, I'm afraid she'd be hit by a car (we're very close to a busy highway). Plus a few other reasons. I just don't think it's fair that she never goes outside, so I've got her a nice long cord and put her outside with me if I'm out. She meows like mad when she comes in. I've tried spraying her and it doesn't seem to work. She'll run off then a min later meow again. She always charges the door if you open it. I tell my mom to spray her when she does that and that she should be allowed by the door when people are going in or out. Also, that she should be carried whenever she goes outside (I don't know if that would make a difference? I just thought maybe she wouldn't get use to walking out on her own and think she can go out any time the door opens.)
My mom said maybe we shouldn't let her out at all. I don't know, she likes it so much that I don't think it's fair now. Sometimes I just can't take her out everyday either, or if it's raining I don't really want to sit in the rain lol...
Any suggestions and is it best for her to go out even if it's not all the time??
