CIRCLE WITH A DOT

@nest If we double down on keeping them inside, which would be fine with me, do they ever learn to stop escaping? Our cats are relatively young, ~2 years old.

@nest Agreed, that's why we opted for a catio. Right now I would like to just let them outside when we are relaxing on the porch/yard, but they don't like the leash, at least not yet. And otherwise they tend to run-off and are difficult to get back in.

I've considered a one-way-door, so we can let them out when we are outside, but we have hard time coaxing them back in, that way they can let themselves back in.

Our biggest issue is the escaping, when kids leave the door open long enough.

I need opinions on this #caturday.

When we got cats, we intended them to be indoor cats. But they LOVE to be outside, and we also spend quite a bit of time outside in the warmer months, and its sad when they watch us from inside, also they escape a lot!

I added a catio, to give them some outside space, but they want more. Should we let them have more outside freedom, or double down on being indoor cats?
