I quit letting my boy cats go out free a long time ago. All they do is fight and end up with a $200 vet bill. Now I keep them on the screened in back porch where they are safe, but still feel like they're "outdoors."
My Mama Cat passed away a few years ago, she'd go outside when she wanted and never left the yard. I have a little girl cat named Ginger now, and she goes out occasionally, but not for long, and she stays close to the house too. i don't live on a busy street, so that helps as far as car danger. Really sucks to have a pet hit by a car or killed by a dog. Really sad when either happens.
