    My cats are indoors/outdoor cats. They can come & go as they please.

    I live in a park, back from the main road, for the most part my cats stay in my yard only, unless something spooks them or the like. I respect my neighbors & ask them frequently if my cats are bothering them in any way, they are tested & vaccinated for FIV & LEUK and have the proper flea & HW prevention.
    If any of these things were to change I would keep them inside only.

    I did try to keep my cats indoors only but they were feral rescues, keeping them inside only is full time chore. lol
    Soar high & free my sweet fur angels. I love you Nanook & Raustyk... forever & ever.

    Inside only. They do make the break now and then, but, between my screaming, and Jonah's screeching, they return post haste!

    My cats have a very secure kitty enclosure. It's fenced to the same height as the house roof with a section angle in at the top(to prevent going over should they ever decide to climb). It's blocked off so the dogs can't even see the cat area. It's about the size of an average city backyard. It's the only place they are allowed outside. A cat in any other part of my yard is dead-- something I learned the hard way.
    If you are lucky enough to find a way of life you love, you must find the courage to live it.

    I have 5 cats that are indoor only and 2 ferals which live outside. They
    do spend evenings inside my garage. All are UTD on meds and spayed and
    neutered.I do worry more about the 2 outside,
