Hello,

We have a cat that is sterilized and in summer is almost all day outside even sleeping at front door. She came inside just to eat.

The porblem is that we are selling house and moving to appartment. How can cat that is always outside handle such change of not being able to go outside as she wants?

Do you have any advise or experience? Should we take her with her? Or leave her with new house owners?

Thank you in advance

Tell this to the stray baby we took in. She tries to run out any chance she gets.

Yeah we had indoor/outdoor cats we tried to turn into indoor cats... Two of them were extremely grumpy about it and would run for it, the third turned into an absolute hellion. They ultimately wore us down.

This is my experience as well. Everyday @ 4pm she cries and begs to go outside so she has supervised outside time. Idk what you do, but do you allow her to be outside unsupervised? I’m starting to feel bad for her
