My BooBoo is such a funny little guy (and he's looking beautifully shaggy right now; too bad he's getting groomed next week but he really needs it):

I live in a house with 2 stories, and there are sliding glass doors on each floor. Boo whined to go out this morning (he stays in the back yard, only, which is why we allow him out) so I let him out as the upper door; he wandered around the deck, making sure everything's is as it should be; then he strolled down the stairs, hollered at the slider down there; my sister opened it for him and he climbed back up to the upstairs glass door and wanted to go out again. (This time I left it open so he could get in and out as he pleases.)

Poor kitty; this has been a hard winter for him because it's been so cold we couldn't let him out at all. Spring is here for a few days and then the weather's going south again. And he'll blame ME for it! {#emotions_dlg.biggrin}

Sorry but I won't/don't let my cats out no matter how much they pester me. I like having them around for a long healthy life. Too dangerous for kitty outdoors.

Ditto!

The only cats we have outside are the 2 ferals we are now feeding. We just trapped the female a week or so ago and had her spayed and given her shots, and put her back outside.

Our indoor only felines are just that "indoor only". We love them way to much to risk the many dangers that lurk in the out of doors. I could list all the many reasons for our decision but I've mentioned here many times before.
