My 6-8 month old cat wants to go outside and she does enjoy being outside (on a harness and leash) but she wants to be outside but every time she comes back inside, she throws up.
Let me give some background information on her;
She was a feral kitten about 3-4 months old that appeared on our property 3 days before my husband had to go back to AIT. We used a live trap to catch her because she wouldn't let any person or animal near her. In fact when we would feed our other outdoor cats, she would eat only a little bit at a time, circle the house, and eat some more until she was full but she's never hood still. Her tummy was huge and the rest of her was emaciated. She had a severely inflamed anus and worms which were all treated and she was vaccinated after her first vet appointment. She cuddled me easily and we bonded fast but she won't tolerate anyone else unless I'm holding her, and at first when I took her outside, she would cling to me for dear life, didn't want to touch grass, and try to bolt away from me. Back inside, she was perfectly fine, often falling asleep on my chest, and being affectionate.
I got her to enjoy being outside and lay in the grass and say hi to the other cats, and now she sits at the window and meows 75% of the time we're together. She'll eat her breakfast, and go straight to the window. Only when she's playing or sleeping will she get off the sill. And the whole time she's up there she meows and meows. And they sound very longing. I know if I let her outside on her own she'll never come back. And she throws up after being outside. What can I do about that? And how can I make her happy without losing her? I will never give my furry girl up. Except for these minor issues she's everything I ever wanted to in a cat.
