I love my cat almost more than my wife and kids. He goes out as he pleases, during colder nights, he is always inside, but when its hot, he will sleep outside.

The motherfucker even has his own Facebook!!

We let both of our cats go in and out as they please. Follow me around when I walk the dog. Kinda funny to see the dog on the leash, and 2 cats following along!

Cats should never be let outside. They are called house cats for a reason. They kill many native birds and are a detriment to the environment. They are responsible for the extinction of many bird species in New Zealand and cause major damage all over the world. Please keep them in the house where they belong. Native wild life is not adapted to the hunting skills of cats.

Well said. In my neighborhood there are many outdoor cats. I often come home from work and find dead birds and squirrels in my driveway. I have spoken to some of the neighbors about this and they are just ignorant about the whole situation. They feel that it is a cat's "job" to kill animals.

I leave mine tied to each other at the tail and then hung over a clothes line to untie each other.

I live on the third floor of a triplex,so letting my cat outside is not
an option.

My fear is that she would runaway,or one of my nutbar neighbors
would steal her,and sell her.

But even if I had a house with a backyard,I would not let my cat
go outside.

I'm not into the flea thing.

So you are saying you never let your "kitty" out for fresh air huh? Sorry I had to, I honestly cant believe no one else has said it yet.

Despite the fact that they're undenyably a detriment to the environment when let outside, I just love to watch cats hunt. They're smart, sneaky and move like liquid mercury. What wonderful animals.

That said, keep Fifi inside.

Assholes down the street have a cat that's always running over here to piss on my porch and in the bushes. Fucking ticks me off. They don't give a shit either and think it's funny.

It does this because I have two cats and they won't get their's fixed, nor keep the pest in their own house.

I like animals and all, but when they become a pest, well...


A DEEP one that is.

Oh, and our cats do get outside time. But only when we're with them and not for very long.

Wow didn't think this poll would wind up so popular. As i said before though, while yes it is amazing to watch them hunt and they love being outside i just can't bring mysel to ever let mine out no matter how much they beg.

All kidding aside, an uncle of mine once had this problem. He solved it by kidnapping their cat. He kept it in his basement, well fed and taken care of, and when the neighbors came door to door looking for the cat he denied any knowledge, but they were obviously very supicious of him because he had complained about the cat tearing his shit up and pissing all over numerous times before. He anonymously returned the cat after about a week, and the neighbors made a point of it to never let the thing near his house ever again. He was less about five pounds of cat food, but got rid of a pest for good.

I leave an upstairs window open during the warmer days, just for the cats to go in and out of. One of them is quite a hunter and leaves corpses of mice and birds on my doorstep almost daily.

Fenced backyard and no claws = does not escape easily.

We let them out for a few hours at a time.

My wife does some work with a bird sanctuary, and they're real serious about the whole "Don't let your cats outside" thing. Not only is it bad for the birds, it's bad for the cats -- there are a lot of insects and diseases out there now that can mess them up big time, and if you live (like I do) in an area with a bunch of wild animals around, I guarantee you if your cat got into a fight with a hedgehog or a badger, Mr. Whiskers would come home a bloody mess if he came home at all. Keep the cat inside, and if you do have to let them out, watch them and keep them on a leash.
