It is possible for your cat to thrive while living indoors
With many people choosing to live in security complexes these days, the choice to keep your cat indoors has become a popular one. But as we know that cats enjoy roaming, is this a cruel practice and how can you still offer your cat optimal quality of life?
7 benefits of living indoors

2. SAFETY FROM MALICIOUS NEIGHBOURS Let’s face it, there are many people out there who just do not like cats.
