We have only had one cat in the past 12 or so years. He has always been in inside cat. He is fat,around 16 lbs, fixed, shots etc. He would probably love to be outside but has NO clue as what to do when he does get out. My opinion would be make sure it is up to dates with his/her shots and let it go out. If it knows where its' home is, it will come back everyday/night unless it is preocupied with something/someone else. I think at this point in its life it has developed its own habits. If you try and change them, it will rebel whether it be meowing constantly, pi$$ing indoors,pooping on the floor etc. Honestly, I don't think you can win with any animal, They are animals. Outdoors is a natural habitat for them. I could also tell you about chickens,geese,cows,goats,dogs.pigs etc. They all live outside and survive with a little help from us.
