Keep your Pet Safe and Conserve Native Animals Cats are lovable pets and great companions. We now know that pet cats kept indoors live longer and healthier lives than pet cats kept outdoors.
Indoor cats are safe and also away from our native wildlife.
Even the scent of your cat can scare away native animals. Keep your cat indoors as much as possible, especially in the early morning, late afternoon and at night. Train your kitten to be an 'indoor cat'. Kittens who are kept indoors usually show no desire to go outside as cats. Get your kitten desexed.
