First off I don't like outside animals. For one, they are social creatures, and I really don't know why anyone would want to have them outside when they could have them inside.

Second my family has 2 outside cats. Now before you get mad at me, let me explain. We have a heated shop and they are in that most of the time. Second they get ALL of their shots, and third my parents don't want them in the house because they are pretty allergic to cats and they don't want them in the house. Believe me I want them in the house SO very bad, but unfortunately I am not the boss of the house so I can't say, "The cats are going be inside only", I have to obey my parents. I would LOVE to have them in the house, as strickly inside cats only, but unfortunately I don't have control over that.

One of the reasons I have never mentioned our cats before is I was afraid that people would get angry with me, and start saying nasty things to me when i don't have control of whether they are inside or not. Believe me I would LOVE to have them inside, but its a no-win situation for me.

My extended family are farm people and they believe that the place whre a dog should be is outside, ESPECIALLY if it has long hair, and I do not agree with them. I have gotten some flax from people about MY dog being in MY house.

Anyho, I am just saying that I think any animal that a person has they should be INSIDE with them.
