Hello, new here! :)
For a few months I've been thinking seriously about getting a cat, particularly a male kitten and would like the cat to be an indoor cat as we have a busy road nearby and I'm not too fond of receiving cat 'gifts' (ie. mice etc!)
The problem is we live in a flat, on the second floor :( DP thinks it wouldn't be practical to keep a cat shut up indoors all day. Could anyone give me an advice about whether it could work? Would a cat need to go outside everyday or would it even be possible to let the cat out in the morning and let him back in when I get in from work? Problem is the busy road and the fact that the cat would be shut out all day as we both work full time :(
I'm also worried about the cat jumping out of the window if we have them open in the summer Probably being stupid here but I've never owned a cat before so don't know if they do this
I would be really grateful if anyone could advise me, and tell me straight if I'm being ridiculous thinking I can keep a cat locked up all day
Thanks!
