We've always let our cats go outside whenever they wanted. None of our girls have ever wandered like our latest kitten. She's a year old and wanders for hours and far from home. We don't want to restrict her to being an indoor cat but this cat is just going too far. We lost her a couple weeks back for a couple days. I thing she would have come home but she was taken inside by a good samaritan and not let back out. Yesterday she went out at 7 am and didn't return till 1:30 am. We searched high and low but no sign of her till this morning. How do you keep your outdoor cats from taking off for hours on end??
