    my cat has moved 4 times in 4 years ( god I didnt realise it was that much ) we keep her in for maybe a week, she has never gone away, cat are smart they wont get close enough to the dogs next door, might tease them alittle by sitting on the fence but other than that they will be fine... they know where the love is ( and dinner )

    this has been the only house we have had a problem with our cat doing her business somewhere she shouldnt, but I think thats coz we are living on 18 acres and there are loads of snakes and other creapy crawlies, and some not so friendly wild dog packs, so I guess she is just to scared to crap outside...

    Whenever we let one of our cats out for the first time we'd do so right before feeding time. Make sure their bowls inside are empty or taken away after breakfast then about 10mins before dinner let them out. Go out with them if you can the first few times, then after 10mins start calling them for dinner back inside. I think we did this for about a week then they were on their own!

    Good Luck!
