It is not cruel to keep your cats indoor only.
My cat was an outdoor cat, and to cut a long story short someone had got hold of her outside and pulled her tail so hard it broke her spine and paralyzed her. She had to be put down three days later after having her tail amputated and manually...
I'm new here so hello. I picked up a Turkish Van yesterday and basically she is um... I dunno hwo to describe it. She is curious, but nervous :s
She won't run if you put your hand up to her, she'll let you stroke her and pick her up BUT when you start walking about she runs and hides, either...
Please meet our newest member of the family, though she has no name yet though she is a Turkish Van
