I have 2 declawed cats that have been indoors their whole lives.Their litter smells awful no matter what litter I use, and they shed terribly, so they cannot live indoors anymore. My dad and I fenced off the doors of my old tree house and added a lockable door and everything, and they've both been staying there the past few days. But a couple of days ago, Chelsea (the youngest) kept escaping, so I left her out and she enjoys it and is fine! But Nala (the oldest) can't escape, and she is very lonesome. I want her to be able to go outside with Chelsea but I live, litery where the woods is my backyard! So I'm afraid she'll wander out into the woods and a wild animal will be after her, and she, being declawed, won't be able to climb a tree to get away from danger! I only got Chelsea as a kitten last year in june, so she isnt too very used to indoors. But Nala on the other hand, I have had since she was a kitten, for 5 years! And for 4 of those years, she was my best friend, becauyse I am homeschooled and don't have a very social life haha! So as you can see, she is very special to me, and I would be SO miserable if I let something happen to her! So my question ( in shorter terms) is, will Nala get used to being outside and survive since she is declawed? oh and I forgot to mention. The whole "introduce your cat to outdoors" thing, doesn'ty work haha, I have taken that advice before, and she still acted the same, crouched down low to the ground like she was in trouble and crawled around very confused and scared like. SO any advice will be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks!
