Letting Your Cat/Kitten Outside For The First Time

You may find it difficult to let go of your young cat and let her see the outside world for the first time. You may be concerned about her safety and security. The outdoors may put your kitten at risk of getting into situations you do not want her to be in. So, be sure to prepare the necessary things before you let her out.


Here are some guidelines to follow:

● Get your cat an identification tag, either a fitted collar or a microchip. Provide all necessary information in the tag.

● You may install a cat flap in your home to give your cat access to the outside environment when you are away during the day.

● Be observant of your surrounding or neighborhood. Assess if your cat or kitten will be safe during day walks or night trips.


Allowing your kitten or cat outside is important because this will train her to be “streetwise” and how she should face the world by herself.
