Kay - I noticed you have been here in Cat General allot lately! How about borrowing Caeleigh and/or Orion more and more often to really get Simba used to them and going from there? I suspect there IS a kitty or two in your future The idea of the kitty run is great! But best if it could be an indoor/outdoor situation and not just outdoor. I bet you could get Simba to learn to tolerate a kitty! You are good with animals and I really think you could train Simba to get along with a kitty sibling - do you think?? Besides, there is nothing like having a kitty to snuggle in bed and relaxing on the couch indoors!!

Basically, I really don't think being an enclosure cat exclusively is a good idea - unless it is necessary for a cat you already have. For example - Kelly's Livvy who has her own apartment and is the envy of her siblings!!

These are just my opinions!! OK?
