Be prepared to dawdle and don t pull on the leash or the cat will simply lie down. Do not leave your cat tied outside on a leash unattended. Clean the litter box every day. You should have one litter box per household cat. You may consider bringing a little of the outside in by growing grass in a large pot as cats love the sweet taste of young grass.
Most pet stores carry kits for growing kitty grass.
The easiest way to raise a cat as an indoor cat is to keep her inside from the time she is a kitten. Cats that have never been outside are generally quite happy to stay in the comfort of their indoor castle. However, if your cat has been out playing Russian roulette already, it will take a little patience and effort on your part to convince her that staying indoors is a good idea. Just as Rover would rather go tearing around the neighbourhood if given the chance, so would Whiskers. But most dog owners know this is not in the best interest of their pet.
