Indoor Training

Cats living totally indoors survive longer than outdoor cats.  They are not mauled by dogs, run over by cars or attacked by feral tom cats. The feline AIDS virus is transmitted by cat bites.

Cats subject to solar cancers i.e. white and tortoiseshell, do not get ultra violet exposure through the window glass.

Some cats will not be happy indoors and must have freedom with its risks.

If a cat is happy indoors there is no benefits for it being free outside.

Smelly litter trays may be a problem for the owner but this is often managed by the use of 'premium' brands of dry food.
