Ok. I have had cats before that went outside/ roamed and came home when they wanted to. I don't want this with Izzy. I had initially thought she is not going outside at all. I live in a house with a fenced yard. But fenced is not secure by any means especially since she can just climb up with her claws or under with little holes here and there.
But now I have been considering using a harness and letting her out on a leash at times. With summer I would spend more time outside in the evenings. So Izzy is kept inside during the day and then she would be stuck being alone inside for another couple of hours.
What do you guys do?
I got a harness for her today and put it on her and she was not impressed and just kind of hid out. I'm sure she would get used to it evenutally. If I would go with the harness what is the best way to get her used to it. Just put it on her and hope she will get used to it or put it on for short periods of time at first?
