We are pondering getting a cat BUT I seriously can not handle it killing things/bringing things in - never managed to get over this fear with previous cat. It's not just worry of it happening it's avoiding coming home, avoiding going into rooms until they have been checked, lots of tears etc.
So, a house cat would be our ideal. Can you make a kitten/cat be a house cat? Do they always want to run for freedom the second a door or window is open?
My biggest question is, is it fair? I hate the thought of having a cat and us make it miserable.
We live miles from anywhere so it's safe but there is also lots of wildlife! Previous cat had 5 bells and an electronic cat flap and she still managed to murder!
