Good Morning,
We have recently, 5 days ago, moved to a much bigger house. Our cat is an 8 month old Bengal x Russian Grey. Our previous house was classed as Rural, with only other houses and fields beyond therefore he never came into contact with traffic etc. We started to let him out when he was around 5 months old and he never showed much interested and would always lurk around the gardens and then come back in on an evening and stay in. Our new house is much bigger which he enjoys, however i am almost contemplating restricting him to the house. It is in the middle of a busy village on a new estate and we have lots of traffic around us.
I don't think i can bare to let him go outside in case he gets run over.
What should i do?
How long should i leave him before he can have his first taste of the outside world in the new house.
He is already sitting at our patio doors and front doors meowing to be let out.
Help me please, i dont want to loose my baby He has never experienced moving traffic, is this a good thing so he will shy away from it?
He is timid towards new people; in actual fact if your not his mum, dad or big sister he really isn't interested in you what so ever but will allow anyone to pick him up etc.
Thank you
