Keeping My Kitten In The House

Tweet

Last year, I took in a tabby kitten from my friend. Her cat had a litter of kittens and the family was giving them away, so I snagged one as soon as I knew she was pregnant. Anyway, it was a little boy, and I named him Milo. Being a little boy, he is prone to wandering. In fact, he spends almost all of his time out of doors, over the backyard fence, prowling the neighborhood. He really only comes home to cry for food =] He's incredibly independent, and wriggles away from being handled or even petted. He's yet to have been neutered, because the family hasn't been able to afford it until recently. Finally, his appointment to get fixed is scheduled for next week, and I need some tips on keeping him in the house and getting him used to staying inside. It wouldn't really be a problem, except that all the cats have to get out to use the litterbox, and our dog needs to get into the backyard to.. do his business. Any ideas? Thanks.
