How do you teach two outdoor cats to live indoors and be happy about it? Our new neighbor is not happy about our cats being outdoors. And our HOA specifies animals to be in control of homeowner at all times.
What handsome kitties! This can be a tough problem. If you are moving them indoors I would consider trying the Feliway multicat pheromone diffusers in your home as well as Composure chews (a calming supplement) or Zylkene for cats. These products can be found online or at your vet. I would consider getting harnesses to take your cats outside for " walks". If the cats are miserable indoors you can also have special cat fencing installed to keep them in your yard or build an outdoor enclosure for them.

I had to move in small room,one of my cat is very active and in this tiny place can't run and play,so I have to let him out for a walk,but now it's very cold and when he's out he runs and hide somewhere and doesn't come home until it's dark,I started
I would keep him inside so he isn't accidentally harmed or injured. You can add in some toys that are interactive (such as a laser pointer) or even add in some furniture such as shelves or a cat tree that will allow him to climb and get more exercise. If he does like to go outside, buying a cat-harness and leash and taking him on supervised outings outside can help him to explore without getting away and potentially being injured.

I know tinsel is dangerous to cats, but why is it harmful? And what about other holiday decorations?
Cats and holiday decorations don’t always mix well. As curious animals, cats tend to explore any new additions to their environment and see many of these shiny, new objects as fun toys. Tinsel is the ultimate shiny object for a cat to play with, which often ends with subsequent ingestion. If ingested, tinsel poses a serious risk of causing an intestinal blockage, also known as a linear foreign body obstruction. This life-threatening surgical emergency can easily be avoided by keeping tinsel out of homes with cats. Other holiday decorations can pose problems to particularly curious cats, such as strings of lights that some cats may try to chew, decorative ornaments or snow globes that look like toys to bat around, or poisonous plants, such as mistletoe or poinsettias. When decorating for the holidays, try to look at your house from your cat’s point of view and keep decorations that look like enticing toys packed away.

How can I get an outdoor cat to become indoor? Mimi is about 4-5 months old and shes been outdoor cat all her life up to now, I'm adopting her on Friday and I want her to be indoor cat only, lost 2 cats to cars hitting them. How can I stop constant m
Most cats will eventually settle down and adapt to life indoors. Her set up sounds wonderful and I'm glad you have taken the time to get everything in order for her. Here are a few things you can do which may also help. Try enriching his environment. Here is a great article about cat's instinctual needs: https://www.petcoach.co/article/why-every-cat-needs-a-place-to-climb/ Use a Feliway diffuser, set aside 30 minutes a day for vigorous play and/or switch the food to Royal Canin Calm (when Mimi is 1 year old) . You may also try feeding her from a food puzzle and/or hiding food around the house for her to find. The veterinarian can also prescribe medications which can help with behavior if needed. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.

My cat is fine with my dad yet he absolutely hates me. Can I fix this at home without meds. (hates the vet too) (is fine there until they come out.)
I suggest you try some Feliway products. You can even use the spray on your clothes prior to handling or getting near your cat. You can also try some calming treats. https://www.feliway.com/us#redirected https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/comfort-zone-diffuser-with-feliway-for-cats https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/comfort-zone-spray-with-feliway-for-cats https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/vetri-science-composure-feline-bite-sized-chews Just keep in mind you may never get your cat to "like" you. You cannot force the issue. Hope this helps. Best wishes!
