Re: How do you introduce the outdoors to your indoor cat?

My suggestion is to keep her as an indoor cat but buy a cat lead and when the weather is okay take her out on the lead so she can explore the outside but with you by her side. I take my Sylvie out for walks on a cat lead and she adores it. Due to her being blind she cannot go out otherwise.

Hope this was helpful and let me know how you get on.

I totally agree with the lead and harness and keeping her indoors - and only walking her, when you can be with her...
