mine are both indoor at the mo- hopefully getting the catproofing up next few weeks though.
if i had a pound for everytime someone had told me i was mad, cruel, overprotective neurotic etc etc i could have brought a much bigger house by now!!!
i keep trying to explain my feelings on it and lucifer and spare cats(kali) temperments and get told " oo youd be surprised how well cats cope once you let them out"
hmm these are the same people who call me crazy cat lady and yet they think i havent researched this and put alot of thought into it!!
on the upside i have converted a few, my mother told me i was cruel at first but as soon as she met them (she lives t'other end of uk) she said shed never seen such happy relaxed cats
Spare cat would like to go outside but she seems more perplexed by my apparent inability to understand door opening instructions than actually going out! but shes very territorial and not very bright
Lucifer loves going out on his harness- he actually purrs and does the rolling cheek rubbing thing if you show it to him- but he doesnt go more than a few feet from the house on his own and seems very concerned/worried/scared (hes managed a few escapes). He is also a complete wet blanket and a small cat. he assumes all people/dogs/cats want to be his friend and goes straight to them to rub against. i can see this being a very dangerous combination
