Is it possible to convert a cat that's used to being outside to an inside cat? I've heard rumours that you can,but I would tend to think once it's had a taste of the outside that it would be difficult if not impossible to make this change.
Reason I bring this up is when we originally fostered this cat from the shelter,it wasn't made clear to us whether the cat had been outside before and he has been seeming really antsy like he wants to go outside. He'll do things like caterwaul alot in the house,sit by the window for awhile, then try to go inside the closets near the window indicating he might think it's a way out. He also tries to come down the stairs to the front door when he hears it.
The reason we don't want him outside is that we live in the city and it's especially dangerous...also the first 'neighborhood' cat my wife liked got ran over here outside.
