dk62- I never knew anyone who had indoor/outdoor pets of any kind until I went to college in Iowa! I live in a big city and don't know anyone who has indoor/outdoor cats (or dogs) as pets. I am sure some people do; I just don't know any personally.
My 14 year old cat is an indoor cat 100% of the time- always has been. I live in a highrise and she does just fine, just as she has in the previous 2 highrises and the walk up I lived in when I got her. She has never ever expressed an interest in going outside. Of course, I would never dream of letting her roam around. The threats from cars, rats that are bigger than she is, other animals etc. scares the living daylights out of me.
