You can buy an enclosed catio to put outside so she can go out but is still contained
THIS! My cat was indoor / outdoor but too many bad things can happen. He was lost for 5 days. He was hit by a car and survived but it was an expensive surgery to heal him! They love the outdoors but too dangerous! A CATIO is a great idea!
@@marinaseltzer1903 I have a cat that was a feral kitten when we got her 5 years ago and one day a couple years ago she got out again somehow and disappeared for 4 months before wandering back into our old apartment again. We had the door open bringing in groceries and she just walked right in. However it took us another couple of months to get her back in for good. Now we live in an apartment on the second floor where the front door leads to a hallway rather than right outside so she's become an indoor cat permanently again.
Yesssss
That Whitney is so talented and creative. She is so amazing on what she comes up with. It is a joy to see the quints as they are growing up so fast.
Hi Skyler! I love that you are asking as a first time cat dad. I would recommend keeping her inside. Where you are in southern Utah there are so many predators that could get her. Just safer inside.
🐈⬛🫶🏻
Inside cat only, please !! They live longer and are healthier and happier. We're fostered. Please keep her inside and get her fixed shots and chipped.
My gram had 3 barn cats they were all 17 to 19 years before they passed. Inside cats are just that, inside pets. Outside cats do just fine .

They may be healthier, but they are certainly not happier. They are not like dogs that are happy just being with their family. I mean, you don't lock your children inside just so that nothing happens to them.
Oui...ou bien les sortir en laisse ....ils s habituent très bien ....le mien se promène avec moi depuis 20 ans ....
Il y a trop de danger dehors ...voitures ...empoisonnement...etc....

Indoor cat! I’ve had cats my whole life and after a couple got hit by cars many, many years ago I only have them inside. They have lived long healthy, happy lives. The last to nearly 17 years and my present cat, identical to your kitten in looks is now 11 years old and very happy and healthy. You can also get catios which you can attach to a window opening so the cat can go inside and outside but safely. You can still close the window when needed. Outside cats rarely live to old age, get more injuries and I think a well loved inside cat that enjoys your company is a much better off. Little Milly is so sweet, just love her and keep her safe! Love watching your vlogs from England! ❤
Great to know! Thank you ❤🏴
Save yourself from the agony of telling your kids that their kitty was hit by a car. Indoors, with a catio if you want.
Never tire of these amazing children
I have a former feral and he comes and goes but I don’t let my cat that I have had since a kitten out because it’s dangerous and once they go out they will always want to go out. I have lost a lot of cats over the years by letting them go outside. Keep her in and make nice spots by the windows for her. Has she been to the Vet? Dewormed? Shots? It’s a great experience to bring the kids to the vet and teach them that animals need medical care just like people do.
Definitely indoor cat. I’ve had both (over 60+ years). The outside cats got hit by cars, got poisoned, just disappeared, had fleas and worms, were in fights and required Vet visits, etc.
They will also catch small birds. 😟 My last cats caught a bluebird and brought it inside. I was able to get it away before it was hurt, but that was their last day outside. (I had been working so hard to attract the bluebirds!). They lived to 17 and 19 years of age.
My cat was an outdoor cat for 7 years when we lived in the countryside but we recently moved to a busy town and he is now an indoor cat. He adjusted very quickly but one suggestion is to get your cute kitten to wear a collar with an AirTag … it gives me complete peace of mind when I can see that he is at home and my kids haven’t let him out by accident, and I can actually find him by searching the AirTag in the house when I can’t see him anywhere! It’s a game changer!!! 😊
On another note, love your family, love your videos and your stories, thank you for sharing 😊
That movie night looked really fun. Cute kid screams when the Goldfish was lit on fire. Hehe did a fantastic job with her French Olympic’s Day for her little cousins. Hehe, you’re very talented. 😊
what a great way to end summer. Every child needs a Hehe in their lives. What fun for them
What fun and creative HeHe Poppins is.....😊 she is wonderful ❤️
I loved the Olympics she set up! Whitnee is the best auntie to those quints!🥇🥈🥉
I have owned cats my whole life. Definitely keep Millie inside!!. They stay healthier and live longer. Make sure to get her fixed.
Please congratulate Hehe for her creative Olympics party! It took a lot of thought and effort. Wonderful!
Keep it indoors! They wander, get lost, hit by cars & mauled from certain wild animals. Plus they get fleas & ticks! ❤
They're satisfied staying in...I felt the same as you wanting to let them free. I've had 3 & from others I know better to keep her inside!❤
We had a cat. After she was 12 years old I looked it up and indoor cats can live 20 yrs. Outdoor cats 2-5 years. So indoor cats are a long term commitment!
She lived until about 19 yrs!
First! ☺Skyler you are the sweetest father. Your children are surely blessed and so are you 💖 The Whoopee Cushion cracked me up 😅
Hey Skyler, thinking indoor is best, but you can teach a cat to play on a leash so when you are outside she can come with. Great to see Hee Hee, she is so great with the kids and it looks like everyone had a blast at her place, can’t imagine with all that candy what it must have been like,lol. Thanks for taking us along Skyler, always great to see you!👦🏼👦🏼👧🏼👧🏼👧🏼💕👍
HeHe, what an amazing party you did for the kids. You are an awesome, wonderful Aunt. What a fantastic day you and Skylar did for the quints and other kids ❤️🎇❤️🎆❤️
Personally, I am all for having someone else's cat living in their house or yard and not mine. Thank you!
Yes, some people do not like other people's cat's 💩in their yard
@@vickiefinney6073says the irresponsible pet owner who somehow didn't know her own cat had been but until it got infected. 🙄
@@DearLeah-z7t Jenn I know this is another of your names. I'm going to notify Skyler you are back to bullying. When will you learn
@@DearLeah-z7t Jenn I reported your channel
@@vickiefinney6073Skyler won't do anything, crybaby. We already know this.
I loved this video!! The kids were having so much fun!! You are such an awesome dad!
I had 9 cats at one time . They were all in door cats that lived very long lives. Not passing until 16, 17, 18.
They are safer in than out. Good luck with Millie.
The kids got so big! I haven’t seen them in a few years since I canceled my cable subscription! They were toddlers the last time I saw them, geez! 😂❤ How are the 2 older brothers doing these days?
So much fun! Hee hee is the best
My cats are indoor and outdoor! We have a dog door and they come in and out as they please. We just brought the cats outside as kittens while we supervised them and gradually let them out free reign
Love the Litter Robot!
FYI..My vet tells me indoor cats live about 7 years longer than outdoor cats. AND your child are so darling/cute.
Prise system is a great idea. The children are so blessed to have the influence and talent of he he. She's just wonderful. And you are the best dad ever..
Gummy bears swimming in jello is the best!!!
I have had several cats in my life and unfortunately I have had a couple that were both indoor and outdoor cats that sadly were hit by cars and killed. One of them was hit and killed right in front of me as I was trying to get her to come inside for the night. Most vets, including mine, will do the right thing by advising you NOT to let your cat outdoors because there are to many dangers and diseases out there. Other countries may do things differently but in the US especially it's A LOT safer for your cat to be indoors. Indoor cats are also the healthiest cats. Where I used to live was pretty much a dumping ground for cats that then became sick and feral which in turn can make your cat sick if they get into a fight with them. We also live in a state where coyotes are known for attacking and carrying off small dogs and cats as well as other wildlife. Please keep your cat safe by keeping it indoors! If you want her to be an indoor/outdoor cat then you can do a couple different things to keep her safe. You can build a catio enclosure or you can train her to walk on a leash and take her out on walks. She's young enough that she can be leash trained but I still recommend either keeping her completely indoors or building a catio enclosure to your house.
Inside only unless you put a harness and a leash on her for walkies! Get Millie used to them for walkies and have the kids take turns helping!
he he is such a great gal. She loves the kids and they adore her😍😍😍. She is so nice.
Black cats are at extra risk because people will hurt them because of superstition! Keep her in. Also, as someone who is a neighbor of outdoor cats, they use our flower gardens for their bathroom and I don’t appreciate that! It stinks and then I have to clean it up!
My cats have never gone outside. They are content and happy and healthy. My last 2 were the same and they lived a long happy life...
I have had a number of cats through the years, 65 yo. I have found some cats are street wise and some are not. Also, depends on how many predators are around as to the survival of your cat. I have decided that my cats will only be indoor cats. Also, just to let you know, once you start letting them out, then decide to keep them indoors, they will meow, a lot, to be outside and try to sneak out.
Hi 👋 our cat is an outside cat 🐈 he 😊was neutered at a young age and stays close to home. He loves the outdoor fresh air, lounging in the sun and grounding. It depends where you live at the end of the day, your choice😊
Yes their happy because of Love
I agree with the comments that say to keep your cat indoors. But for fresh air you can get Millie a catio. There are a ton catio options online and TH-cam has a lot of catio tutorials. Putting up a catio would make a great episode for Let's Go Father.
Indoor kitty! My oldest cat lived to 17 yesterday old as an inside only kitty and was very healthy and happy. Outdoors kitties can venture onto roads or be attacked by any loose animals
Indoor! Just get toys and maybe a climbing house for her. She is adorable!
Fantastic idea!
I have a indoor cat and outdoor cat ( she has a cat habit that has been built for her to have fun and fresh air in 😊
Mine is indoor/outdoor and we have a dog door so the rule of thumb for us is when they figure out the dog door is when they can start going outside.
Really enjoy your family thank you
We only had indoor, but you will want to get them fixed to keep them calmer.
Whitley, a.k.a. Hee Hee is just the BEST! Her creativity has always been so much fun for the quints! ❤
Hope you keep your cat inside. Hehe did a great job on silly Suppers & Olympic Games. Kids are beautiful.
My cats are indoor cats and have been for the 11 years I have had them. My daughter puts hers on a leash when she is on the deck and the cat loves it. Outdoor cats don't live as long since there are natural preditors and human enemies such as cars.
I also have a friend who has a cat patio that basically looks like a chicken coop with shelves to climb, etc. It is attached to an open window, so they can go in and out. And I have another friend who trained their cat to get use to a harness and leash so she can take him out side.
Indoor only! I had 3 cats who were indoor only and all lived to 19 years with no health issues.
HeHe is so wonderful!
If You give the cat a taste of the outdoors they will always want to be outdoors. The cat will live a much longer and safe for life indoors. When you can open the windows and let the cat sit in the windowsill.
I have 3 cats, they are indoor/Outdoor. Believe me, they are happier with the option to do both. So are us owners ha. We have a dog door. They come and go as they please. I have them chipped and collars.. they stay close to home. My cats went outside after I had them for about a month or two.
I’d recommend having Millie be an indoor cat but giving her supervised time outside! I have a fenced in backyard and allow my cat to go out there, but we keep an eye on her to make sure she’s staying in the yard and not eating grass. Over time she has learned not to go to certain corners that I worry she could get out of. If you’re diligent they will learn what is allowed and be content not trying to escape. You can also get a collar that will hold an AirTag so you can track her if she ever did get out. Another option is a screened in porch/catio, but my cat still longed to go outside. She gets to hang out in the patio as much as she wants, and then gets backyard time multiple times a week.
Hello, Mille is so cute and friendly little girl. I’m a cat lover. My cat is an indoor cat , I do let her outside to explore and have fun for a while . My cat is very good not to wander off. Cats do love to climb over the fence perhaps get enclosed fence for her safety , not get into cat fights, and avoid any vet bills..Get Millie vaccinated, and desexed. By the way your children are growing up so fast.
From Dianne, Perth Western Australia 😊
What a great video so much fun thanks for sharing this with us 🥰🦋🦋🦋🌻🌻🌻🐝
Have had kitties my whole life almost 54 years. Tried indoor but never worked out they wanted out and to me that’s just their natural environment. So have always done indoor outdoor. Female spayed kitties stay close to home normally and want to be with you. My female goes out when I do and on occasion hangs out on couch on my carport. Just know your environment if you let them out without you… use common sense they will do great. Millie is adorable. Ps. Kittens need to be with you when outside until older and comfortable. Have fun.
Indoor please. 😻
Please indoor only. Get her spayed, chipped. Another suggestion is to put a collar on her with your contact information or an air tag just in case she gets outside and lost. There are predators in your area, coyotes, hawks and owls. Not to mention fleas and ticks. Hope this helps. ❤️🐈
Inside. My cats are inside only. We were also asked to do that when I adopted them.
If you let the cat out only do it supervised and in a fenced backyard. You could also harness train her and take her on walks (it can be done!). Cats are natural predators and they are also naturally curious so that combination can get them lost or injured. So outside with limits. Also consider that she may shed more if she goes outside often.
Everyone loves Whitney she is amazing 😊
Inside, I have had cats all my life and the indoor ones are cleaner and happier and live longer. Y'all made seven beautiful people, you should be so proud.
It’s best recommended to keep them inside, they also cause huge destruction to the bird population, can get hit by cars, or hurt by other animals. Get a catio or a leash if you want to give her some outdoor time. I’ve had cats indoor my entire life and it’s recommended by rescues even to keep them inside for the best safety of the cats and other animals.
From a Humane Education Director, the facts are: Cats that live only indoors live an average of 15 years. Cats that live both indoors and out doors, or just outdoors generally only live 3-5 years.
Indoor only I have ever had. I just lost my 21 year old. Now I have a 12 and 9 year old They have never tried to get outside. They live longer and are healthier when indoor only.
You should keep her indoors but you can take her on a leash on hikes and stuff. My grandmas senior cat does that because he used to be an outdoor cat and he loves it but won’t go anywhere past the driveway lmao
All rescue agencies in CA require that you make it an indoor cat. I have seen people successfully harness train their cats so they can take them outdoors on a leash (see the channel Ezra, Nova, and Conan).
You can get her an enclosed area that you can sit outside for her to be able to sit outside or you can get her a window seat
That was cute, letting them spend their allowance.
I understand how it is to take a hard time figuring out what they want. I enjoy your channel.😊😊😊😊😊
My cat just goes outside for 10ish minutes every day, for supervised outdoor time! Good for the cat’s enrichment, but they definitely don’t need to be outside more than that! They’re usually perfectly happy inside.
Good to see Whitney
I would definitely say keep the kitten inside. If you even let them out just a few times-they always want to go out. We also had one of our cats-that liked to go outside-disappear one day and we never found him again and that was heartbreaking to everyone 🙁
I've worked at a veterinary clinic for 25 years and for me, 100% indoor only. My cats could always sit in windows to get fresh air. My cats had towers and toys. They were happy and safe. You wouldn't believe some of the horrible things I've seen happen to outdoor kitties. People shooting them with bb guns, caught in traps, etc. We just had a kitten come in a week ago who was found stuck in a car wash. They had to take the car wash apart to free him. We had to remove his leg. 😟Neighbors who aren't cat fans appreciate it when you keep your cats inside. My neighbors cat uses my flower boxes and Mulch as it's litter pan. 👎 Once you let them out, they will get it in their blood and will be impossible to keep inside. My recommendation is to not even get it started going outside.
After injections we took our new cat out on a piece of string, like a leash..and explored, getting her used to the garden. Then no problems, although we always kept her in a night. Love your videos and family 🩷
I don’t believe in forcing a cat to live its whole life indoors. I have a 17 year old cat that goes out every night! He loves it. My other cat stays in a lot of the time but still enjoys to go out and roll around and eat grass. She is about 10. I think of it this way. Would I want to spend my whole life inside? Would I do that to my kids? No. A free life going inside and out is far superior to a captive life. 😊
Indoor only!!
Never let her outside .mine lived 16 years happy and content inside .
Keep your cat in inside love watching you and your kids
Inside only. I have 3 cats they never go outside ever. They are happy and healthy. 🐈⬛ 🐱
Indoor/Outdoor cat depends upon how close you are to fast traffic areas. My cats are in/out depending upon their mood but I have over an acre of land with a lot of underbrush and other structures where the cats can hide and shade and hunt, etc... Keep your kitten in until she is fixed and is about 1 year old so she is physically capable of fending for herself. Also, get or make a cat tree for her so she can practice climbing since that's one of the ways cats get out of trouble. There are cat door options for your sliding patio door so she can go in and out, but again I would wait until she is at least a year old to give her free reign to choose in or out even at night.
Hello and indoor only as no fleas, and not getting hit by car, plus they do live longer as ours is 16 years old now and still getting into trouble.that sounds fun the Olympics that is enjoy thanks for sharing 😊
Hi Skyler, Daisy, Violet, Lily, Lincoln and Logan,
I loved looking at, listening to and watching this 12 minutes and 51 seconds video of you all having fun.
Wow well done to you all, I love all the toys you all picked out for being so good for having stickers left on your good behaviour sticker charts.
Lincoln I love the Science Stalagmites and Stalactites box you chose. Years ago I have been in a real cave that had Stalagmites growing up from the cave floor trying to reach the top of the cave and Stalactites hang down from the top of the cave because they hang on tight. I am not into Science I just know how Stalagmites and Stalactites grow in a cave. They are rather interesting. Maybe when you are older you can go see them in a real cave with a guided tour. Skyler I do not have a cat. Did have a dog years ago that was nearly 19 when I had him put to sleep from losing weight, deaf, blind and having fits. If you take Mille outside maybe buy a bell to hang around her neck to frighten the birds away so she does not catch any.
Whitney I love the Silly Super game you organized and put together for the Quints.
I also loved the games they played while the Olympic Games were on TV. They all looked like they had so much fun. By the way Whitney your face looks stunningly beautiful with makeup on and being groomed so well. I am just saying. I like guys not girls just thought you looked pretty that is all. I do love your bond with the Quints you all love each other very much, get on so well and have so much fun together. I loved the big movie screen where you all watched a Harry Potter movie and the sparklers and the Nemo the Firework Fish you all had fun with what fun.
You all have a great day.
Love from Natalie Spratford a big fan of all your photos and videos from Australia
Indoor! So much safer and healthier
Being a blank cat is be afraid to let her out. People can be mean and black cats get hurt because of that. Our black cat we named Lucky
I have indoor /outdoor cats. LOL. My two are indoor only (they do have a screened porch to be on) UNLESS I put their harnesses on and we walk (I follow, they lead) around the back yard. They do well with the leashes, and I've had the twosome for five and half years. We started the harness leash walking when they were about Millie's size. Rabbit Goo harness is a harness that fits around the neck and slide buckles around the waist. Amazon sells them in different sizes for cats. Millie could go out safely and you could take your daily walk with her. Have you mixed up the names and called Lily "Millie"( or the other way around) yet? LOL
We have our 3 cats indoors only! It’s definitely a lot and safer. If they are outside they can wander off or get eaten by a predator. (At least where we live). So I recommend indoor only cats!
*a lot safer
Please indoor only!!!! A cat is content indoors/ but if they are let outside they will always try to dart out the door. My indoor cats have lived to 18yr - 17 years - currently we have 2 cats 8 yr old & 5 year old. All of them were content indoors. 💜
My sister and I had a cat that we let wander outside because we didn’t know better, and he ended up being hit and killed by a car directly outside our house at only 6 years old, even though we didn’t even live on a busy street. We regret every day not keeping him as an solely indoor cat, so now I recommend to everyone I can to not let their cats wander freely outside!
I'm sorry you lost your cat. Still, I think it's better to have 6 years of a free and happy life outside than 16 years locked up inside. You don't have to regnet anything.
Keep Millie inside❤️🤠. Less bugs etc. My cat Sushi is 11. All of my cats have been indoor cats. You can always get an enclosed cat patio thing.
Inside only. Fresh air - get a catio. Keeps kitty safe. Lots of predators.
we've had cats all my life and all were outdoor/indoor. but only 3 lived to old age because the others mostly got hit by cars, one wandered off and never came back. the 4 we have now have never been outside without being in a carrier to go to a vet visit... they're my daughter's cats and we couldn't see her heart broken if any of them got hit by cars or ran away, too.
looks like millie might be a bombay cat.. they're very loving and are velcro cats!
My cat goes outside and is now 17 years old. Of course she is exposed to more dangers outside, but I still think it's right to let cats outside because it's just their nature and they can hunt there. If you keep her as an indoor cat, I would get a second kitten so that she has enough to do.
Indoor 100 percent! They can get killed so easy and if she gets in a cat fight it cause bad sores and infections
Keep her indoors. That way she is safe
Feel like I should pay admission for this great vlog! 🎉😂. Younare so much fun as a Father! Skylar I know which of the Quints looks most like you - just figured it out! It’s Daisy! He -he is so much fun and so loving to your children! 🩷. Love her! Millie is a sweetie she has plent of an area to roam in your house so she’ll get plenty of exercise inside. You can also buy perches to attach to window sso they can look outside! I thinkit’s wonderful that you have a cat!
Our cat is indoor/outdoor. The whole reason bc he would come home during the night with crazy injuries. He was out cat-ting. No more after a few vet bills. Now he comes in before dark. We get him in with dinner. We’ve doing this for 12 years 👍🏻🫶🏻😻
What a nice party and great olympic games, I love it❤😅
I have a cat harness..so my cat and I go explore the backyard supervised but otherwise it’s an indoor cat. Best to harness train when about five month old onwards..so they get use to it😊
Definitely indoor...too many things could happen outside...we have coyotes here in Florida that love cats...😢...I have an enclosed screen porch that I allow my cats in during the day...they love it out there and they are safe!
