Hi
I have an indoor cat he is a ragdoll.
I let him out. I feel unkind to let him stay in. He is almost 6 months and is still too little to climb the 6ft fence. I know he will wander shortly. I am a memeber of a radgdoll board and they reckon that these type of cats need to stay in at all times. I feel cruel to do that. They are supposed to be strictly indoor cats, but Ollie loves bathing in the sunshine and chasing flies (and bees....another story..he was stung last week had to rush him to vets as his leg swelled.has he learnt his lesson? has he heck, brought me in a half dead one yesterday)
Does anyone else have pedigree cats that they let outside? Am I being a bad mummy? He is supervised while he is out but of course there are moments say when the phone goes etc. I just cannot keep him prisoner in spite of the rules my breeder gave me. I care deeply for Ollie and just want him to be happy and he is so happy in the garden. Any feedback is much appreciated. Thanks.
