“The average lifespan of an indoor cat is 15-18 years. For a cat allowed outdoors, the average life is only 2-5 years.” - Little Big Cat It’s much healthier for cats to be kept indoors where they’re safe from diseases (such as Feline Leukemia, FIV [Feline AIDS], distemper, rabies, and toxoplasmosis), parasites (such as fleas, ticks, and worms), poisons (such as anti-freeze and rat poison), loose dogs, other cats, cars, wild animals (such as coyotes, bears, mountain lions, and birds of prey), malicious people, and more. The list of outdoor dangers for cats is quite long and this is not to mention the damage that cats inflict on our native wildlife. We don’t let our dogs roam freely, so why let our cats? Indoor cats live much longer, healthier lives than outdoor or indoor/outdoor cats and it’s quite possible to have a happy, well entertained indoor cat. There are far safer ways to allow cats to enjoy the outdoors, such walking them on a harness, cat fencing your backyard, or building/buying an outdoor cat enclosure.

Can I ask a question to anyone that knows more about this though? The whole indoor-cat thing is unknown of in my country and only a handful of people are strictly doing this.

I work with a LOT of cats (Say, 500-600 cats a year). When we receive cats at the shelter that are used to being outdoor cats we sometimes see these cats self-harming because they are so upset about not being able to go outside for prolonged periods of time. (This is a diagnosed problem by our several feline veterinarians. Most of these cats have been strays at some point in their lives.)

We place these particular cats in private homes so they have more space and they get at least 2-3 hours of playtime. Despite that, these cats still do not stop self-harming until they are placed in a home where they become outdoor cats again.

How would you recommend 'converting' these cats to indoor cats? As a shelter we can only do so much, but I'm definetly curious as the outdoor cat runs and fences proved not to be enough to suit the needs of these particular cats in private homes.
