Ever since I mentioned to him that I have read posts on here about some of you having them, my Hubby has been talking about building an outdoor enclosure for our 2 indoor cats...with a small "doggie" door for them to go in and out on their own, as they please.....but I have QUESTIONS!
While i would LOVE for them to be able to go outside (because THEY would LOVE to) I have concerns about other cats, or wild animals, coming up to the fence and contaminating our cats (with some dreaded disease) through it.
Also...what about fleas? Is there a way to treat the area to keep those little critters out without using pestisides?
Send answers quick...he wants to go tonight to see about buying a large hollow log from an Amish friend...that he wants to build into a "Cat-House", comlete with different room levels and a pointed top roof....to make it look like a little elf house with window cut outs...shutters and all. Once he gets this log it will be hard to convince him not to build the enclosure!
