Is your cat an outdoor cat?

[Monstermuncher]

..and if so, how much time do they spend outdoors? We have had our rescue cat for 4 months now (kept indoors for the first month on adoption centre advice) and we don't really see a lot of her! I don't know if its just the summer weather and she will want to spend more time indoors once it gets colder and darker earlier or if this is just how she is. She is a fairly young cat, only about a year old and was a stray when found and taken to the adoption centre. I have had a cat before but she was an older girl who wasn't overly keen on exploring outside so this is new to me. We have a cat flap so she can come and go as she pleases. Does anyone else's cat do this? Does she just not really like us? I have told her she treats this house like a hotel but she's not bothered

They rescued elderly and feral cats - difficult ones to re home. I dread to think what happens if they can't re home. We love him and his funny little habits.

I have 6 cats yes I'm mad only five of them like going out & they all head off in the same direction though I haven't a clue where they are going but it must be good as they spend all day their

What does No 6 do?

Madam has just left the house. I love how she trots down the path, inspecting a plant here and there and stopping to sniff the air. I wonder if the dirty stop-out will make it back for dinner later

Cozie he just prefers to sleep all day

One of my mums cats (used to be mine, until I moved out) generally stays in the garden or in the house. The other one often goes off on a 2/3 day bender, worries us all to death, then just wonders back in and eats a mountain of food. The longest he was away was 5 days I think. I was convinced he was dead.
