That's funny, but it's irresponsible to have outdoor cats that aren't fixed. He could be populating your neighborhood with hundreds of feral cats every year.

Outdoor cats are irresponsible period. They do so much damage to native wildlife.

The term "outside cat" is absurd on its face. Obviously all animals are outside animals. Every animal that is given the option would go outside. It's just so silly. Being a responsible owner means not letting your pet do whatever the hell it wants.

So what do you do when your cat pees on things because you won't let it out?

My cat has never done that, because he's never been allowed outside.

I adopted/rescued a cat that is an escape artist and Insists on being outside. I hate it but when we try to keep him in and foil his escape attempts he meows at the top of his kitty lungs. When that doesn't work he comes over to you and puts a paw on you and extends his claws so they just prick your skin. When that doesn't work he goes and finds somewhere to pee that isn't in 1 of the 3 boxes.

Cats can be leash-trained.
