So I am getting a couple of kittens soon, and am trying to decide if I should leash train them.
They will be indoor kitties, because the apartment I will be living in requires it and because I have always wanted some nice loving indoor kitties (my family always had indoor/outdoor kitties which are kind of gross to sleep with though I did).
I am trying to decide if its worth it to leash train them and take them for walks. The main pros I can think of are traveling easier (they will take car rides with me a couple times a year - some about 2 hrs, some about 6hrs), and they get to go outside which they may enjoy. The cons are that I've always thought it was a bit odd to take cats on walks, and they might not really enjoy the outside if leashed.
So what are everyones opinions on this so I can try to make an informed decision.
