Mine are all indoor. There are wild animals out there (here in Los angeles we have coyotes), cars, evil people, all sorts of dangers. We have three cats and the young kittens want to go out, mostly because we do. the oldest is scared to death to leave the house. they live longer, aren't exposed to things like Felv or FIV or fights with other cats. Mine are entertained by the things indoors, and also enjoy sitting in the window and watching the life outside. We put birdfeeders around on the windows which they enjoy a lot. I'd urge you to keep them indoors, or take them for walks on a leash if they will. Mine hate leashes, but maybe yours will enjoy them. I'd also suggest having more than one cat. Mine keep each other entertained (running thru the house at all times). Just a thought.

good luck,

Lisa S., mom to three cats and two rabbits
