Tough one. My cat stays indoors, mostly. However, she has freedom to roam the garden or go wherever she pleases, she doesn’t roam though. My cats have always had freedom. That being said, I’ve lost a pet to a car, there’s been ear mites and one cat never came home. All of that in mind, I still would let my kitty outside if she wanted to, it doesn’t feel right keeping her cooped up.
