There are much better things to do than put the cat outside! It is not a life for a cat. In this case you shoud better think about finding it a better adapted home!
The cat was fully scared by the dog and overexcited. So when your sister took it, the poor guy felt trapped and just wanted to escape for a safe and quiet place! You must not punish it, he just tried to be safe and he probably did not understand why he was picked up by someone at that specific moment.
A cat that arrives in a new house needs some time to adapt, sometimes a lot of time. You must not leave it in the basement. It needs to learn about its new family and to trust you, be very gentle and calm with it.
