Tommy is currently an "indoor/outdoor" cat and is "fixed". We know he is going to have to be indoors exclusively for a while so he can get acclimated to the new environment, but we never saw cats outdoors during our visits to TV. We were wondering if people let their cats outside unsupervised.

Leash laws apply to cats as well as dogs, not just in TV but in most places throughout the country. And even if leash laws weren't there for cats, his safety alone should make you want to keep him indoors or on a leash. Also, probably most of us don't appreciate a loose cat prowling their property and we really don't care for their little piles and urine smell they leave behind. Plus it causes havoc when a cat is on a dog owners property.....causing many dogs to go nuts and start barking (even if they aren't barkers). Then the neighbors complain about the barking dog next door. Now the neighbors don't speak and all because of someone's loose cat who keeps hanging around. Why not invest in a screened in area extended out from your house and let him roam inside and out, but with safety from predators.
