Jan - I’m so sorry for your loss, many people don’t realise what an effect a death of a much loved pet can have so ensure you take time out to grieve and heal. x

My cat got killed by a car last week, i live on a 5mph road so it should not have happened, its left me devastated but i still know that letting a cat out (especially a tom) is the correct thing to do. A speeding car killed my cat, he should not have been killed. If i had kept him in, yes he would have been alive, but very miserable. In the USA i think they should be kept in because of the coyotes etc.

I am undecided - I have taken in a rescue kitten who is about 7 months old. Her jabs finished a week ago but I am very relucant to let her out. 20 years ago I lost a cat to a road accident - then 2 years ago I ran over and killed a cat that was under my car when I left for work - it was a very harrowing experience and I can’t get it out of my mind. Think I will keep her in for a bit longer then use a harass to get her used to the garden - just worried as there is a busy road not too far away. I will see how she gets on in the next few months.

Any thoughts please

Cats are also independent as the men and women. They can go any where they like, but some people are very cruel in this matter. They think that they are just wastage of food and make their houses dirty. In this way they put them out from their houses.

i have 2 cats both 1 year old,they only want to come outside in the garden when we are outside.when we go in you can be sure both will be through the catflap within 30 seconds!i have tried locking them out but they just sit by the cat flap meowing to be let back in.part of me is glad they wont be wondering towards the road but also i think they are missing out on some al fresco cat fun.does this mean cats can be more than happy as a house cat?i don’t know but if a cats unhappy it will let you know!

My cats go outdoors whenever they feel like it, I wouldn’t like to be kept in a confined space and I very much doubt my cats would like to be stuck indoors all the time either.

I don’t agree, cats should be kept inside, there are too many dangers outdoors.

I think it’s cruel to keep cats inside. They should be able to come and go as they please. They maybe our cats but every cat owner knows that cats can not be controlled like dogs, they do as they please when they please. I have a cat flap, it’s magnetically operated so other cats can’t get it. I have no intentions of forcing may cat to stay inside for other than a medical reason when they’re desperate to be outdoors.
