I know, we're just swamped with people here in the US who are proponents of
allowing their beloved companions outside to be mangled by cars, mauled by
dogs, poisoned by neighbors' rat poison or poorly disposed of antifreeze,
infected with diseases, bitten by rabid raccoons, eaten by coyotes, wolves,
cougars, owls, and tortured by sickos, etc., etc.

Funny, I've had indoor cats all of my life and have never experienced any
"behavioural problems" in any of them - *EVER*.  I think the only
"behavioural problems" we're *reallly* talking about here are those annoying
bahaviours like actually have to interact and play with your cats, and
having to go to the effort of scooping a litter box.  If I were too lazy to
do that I might consider allowing my cats to face all the dangers of outside
too!

Hugs,
