I'm adopting a kitty on Saturday. I just lost one in December, and he was an indoor cat. He would often go out on a chain, but he LOVED the outdoors. How should I go with this one? I don't really want to risk he/she getting hit by a car because there's a busy road close by. Also, I live in north western PA and the winters here are brutal! I've also heard indoor cats live longer. Is this true? Should I just stick to the indoor life for this one too? I just realize that cats are naturally nature oriented and need space to play and explore. I just want the best for my new furbaby. Let me know what ya'll think! Thanx
