My cat, Snowball, has never been exposed to the outdoors much and he is perfectly happy as an indoor only cat. If an outside door is open Snowball will sit in front of it with his back turned to it, and make absolutely no effort to get out. We live very close to a hospital and have emergency vechicles(sp?) going down our street at various times, so I'm sure Snowball would have been run over by now if we had been letting him go out.
I think the decision of whether or not to let a cat go outside should be up to each individual person.
