I hope these questions open the subject for you

IF you want one get one if you think that you can afford one that the other side of it vet bills

Why would you want it to go outside? There are so many dangers to cats outside. (other animals, cruel people, cars, ect) If you really want a cat, you should be ready to take on the full responsibility. Also get it spayed/nuetered.

I have two cats, they both use the litter tray when they are indoors. My younger one is very timid and refuses to venture anywhere outside the backyard so she always use the tray, so you might have to put with them using it all the time. If the cat does go outside you will need some sort of tray for him/her to go in, you could get a plant pot and fill it with you soil - just make sure you turn the soil so stuff can decompose.

Get a kitten they are great fun but remember in 20yrs time it could still be around.

you should not get a cat or a kitten if you are not willing to keep it safe indoors..

cats who go out have an average lifespan of less than 2 years..

cars, angry neighbours, other cats, disease, worms, fleas, cults, research labs, getting lost.. etc are all risks for cats who go out

they need something to dig in like dirt or sand so cement yard is no good

if you feed a good quality food and use a good quality litter you wont have a problem
