My Dixie Rose lives inside, too, and doesn't seem any worse for the experience.<br /><br />We had quite a population of feral cats in the neighborhood for a while, but then the drought came, the coyotes showed up looking for food, and nature restored her balance a bit. It happens. ;)shoreacreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16284698314697628805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-152150414216028351.post-26719685329206863012013-08-22T22:53:46.374-03:002013-08-22T22:53:46.374-03:00Hi Jane,

He and I have an ongoing argument about this every time we meet.

My Zoe would love to go outside, but I keep her in too. It is true that once they go out, ecology takes over.

Thanks for visiting my blog. Our cat...Hello Neil. Thanks for visiting my blog. Our cats never go outdoors and therefore never eat birds. I wouldn't have a cat that had to be out, and would eat the birds I try so hard to draw to the yard. I am also vigilant about putting the run to any cat that happens to come through our yard looking for feathered food. This makes much more work for me but the birds are worth it. As are the cats.
