http://www.catster.com/answers/question/can_a_4year_old_outdoor_cat_living_in_tropical_weather_who_has_never_lived_inside_convert_to_an_indo-68500 I have two homes basically and have - so to speak- adopted 3 feral cats in St Thomas, USVI. We feed them daily , 2 of them are very skittish and have never really warmed up to people. One, however, is very people friendly and i have just fallen in love with him. Understand, he allows me to pet him and loves it, but i have never really picked him up. They were all spayed, neutered as kittens by the humane society down here. we are moving back to NYC permanently and I am thinking of taking the one with us, but no sure if this is cruel or loving, since he has spent is entire life outdoors, and with his 2 siblings. Not sure he will thrive in a small NYC apartment. Please advise. en-us Copyright Catster 2013 Fri, 24 May 2013 11:44:05 GMT Fri, May 24th 2013, 04:44 GMT http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss Catster.com catsters@catster.com catsters@catster.com http://www.catster.com/answers/question/can_a_4year_old_outdoor_cat_living_in_tropical_weather_who_has_never_lived_inside_convert_to_an_indo-68500#answer-179410 I really think this one is a judgement call you have to make. It is possible to turn an outdoor cat into an indoor cat with a little training and some patience, but whether or not it is right for this cat I cannot say. Use common sense and follow your heart.
