As long as the neighbors keep their large dogs confined, I have no problems about letting my kitties out, especially for a day's play in the yard. It does them good, to get out and climb the trees, chase birds, and run around chasing each other especially at "cat time" (at sun-up and sun-down) But during the day they mostly sleep under the car and around the awning areas. As far as a time of day, I'd say after about 9 AM is best to let them out, or anytime where they can be supervised because of loose dogs. One of the most dangerous times of the day to let them out is early in the morning about sun-up because if there are any loose dogs roaming around, this is the time their owners are not up to feed them, and that they are hungry.
