My Kitty Is About 7-8 Weeks Old. He Lives For The Outdoors; He Never Wants To Come Back Indoors. He's Nearly Impossible To Catch When Outside, Runs/hides It's Like He's On Speed When Outside; He Cries And Stays By The Door When Inside Now. He Hasn't Been Fixed Yet, Will This That Help?

This is what happens when cats are allowed to stay out frequently. Obviously your cat loves it more outside than it does inside. You need to ignore the cries and try to keep it inside more to develop a habit of staying at home as well. Moreover, play games to entertain it inside the house.

My cat was exactly like yours. I don't want this to sound harsh but my cat is dead now, we had to put him down. His mother was an outside cat who had kittens and the owner of the outside cat didn't want to keep them so we took one and named him Stripes. He always wanted to go outside and we let him. It didn't seem fair to keep him in when he was born outside and he obviously loved it. As he grew up, sometimes he'd be out all night. It got to a point where he'd stand by the door and just holler until someone let him out. If it gets to that point, you can't just ignore it. You have an outside cat and that's the way it'll stay. Unfortunately, many outside cats get sick from being with other cats. My cat got many abscesses from fighting and he had a list of diseases, the main one being Leukemia. He was also run over once, my neighbour saw it happen. So, take him to the vet regularly to keep illnesses in check.
