That is your choice.

One Cat I have stays in the House most of the Time by choice as She is Older Now and I have had Her for about 7 Years or so. I let Her out when She wants to go out. I figure She should have some choice about Her own life.

But, I could not stand to have all 5 in the House all of the time.

The other 4 Cat were Stray/Alley Cats Born under My House (they are about 1 Year and 2 Months old now) that My Wife insisted on Feeding and of course the stuck around and while they still hunt and eat what they kill (no Gophers around since they have been here) but they are dependent on Us for most of their Food.

I had the 3 Females Fixed and did not alter the Male so He would keep Cats from out side our Yard away from their Food (and that worked after He got big enough).

But, My personal opinion is that it is a little cruel to keep Animals locked inside all the time.
People who have inside Dogs at least walk them once in a while.

If you like think if the 4 newest Cats as not being entirely Domestic partly Wild Cats.
