I was and outdoor cat and now I'm an indoor cat. This is not a good thing. I was soooo happy when I could go out, but now because of my illness, I have to stay in. I get very frustrated and even a little depressed sometimes.
Meowmy says it's dangerous outdoors - ticks, fleas, cars, bigger cats (some with contagious diseases), alligators, etc.
Have you convinced your meowmy that you will stay in your back yard (even fenced in)? We know better, don't we? We are sooo smart. We always find a way to get out.
I think that if you have never known the freedom of going out, you won't miss it, but once you try it, you will never be happy being indoors all the time. And just think of how your meowmy would feel if anything bad happened to you.... I know she loves you very much.
There are some cages for sale (not sure where) that are made just for kitties to be able to go out in the grass and feel the breeze blowing their whiskers, but those people make them so that we can't escape. I'm not sure how much they cost. I'm lucky that we have a large cage around the pool, so that even though I can't go in the grass, I can still be sort of outside.
I hope this helps - sorry I got so loquacious, but I've been there, and I'm purring that your meowmy will make the right decision for you.
