    You can have house cat but need a litter tray,no way round it AFAIK.
    If cat goes out always a liklihood of presents,no way round that either AFAIK.

    Thanks Beanie and Elfen - thought that might be the case. Is it cruel to keep a cat inside all the time though?

    WOW POOKY that is fantastic news and we can all :j:j:j jump for joy for you and with you even if you can't tell those closest to you. If you think about it most of us are in the same boat - we come on here to share our financial problems because we can't tell those nearest to us. So when we say we are debt free it will be only on here to those that know, care and love us too. Really am pleased that you are able to breath a little easier now, even though there are circumstances that you can't change. Loves you and you have brightened my day xx

    ten, mum's went out to lay on the step when it was sunny, but apart from that she didn't go out at all, so no, I wouldn't say it's cruel. If you want a house cat, you could see if you can rehome either a partially blind or partially deaf cat, then they would be more accustomed to being inside and using a litter box
