Reply to comment by Charlesinrichmond in Cat taken from 1100 Block Floyd Ave by arbitrary_t

He was originally feral, and we found him under our sink and took him in. That is why he is indoor/outdoor. Trust me, if we could make him an indoor cat we would.

I understand, it's tough. But it's not going to do much for his life expectancy.

I used to be a fan of the concept, but too many dead cats (and dead birds)

I think once he is returned we are going to be keeping him inside moving forward. This is definitely a reality check, but we just want him back :(

Thank you for your response

If you find Little isn't adaptive to indoor only life, get a slip-on tag (that slides over his collar instead of hanging down) for his collar and with your phone#, also have it say "indoor/outdoor cat" so people know he's not abandoned! That is what we did with our rescue feral that struggled to adapt.
