How to keep my indoor outdoor cat happy and safe as the only pet?

Question

Hi. Since Oliver is the only cat here and I can't afford to have another cat, how do I make him happy and safe as an indoor outdoor kitty? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | unneutered | 4 months and 12 days old | 9 lbs

Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. I would make sure to have his vaccinations kept up to date (FVRCP, FeLV and Rabies vaccinations). I would also recommend having him on a flea / tick / heartworm / intestinal parasite preventative. There are preventatives such as Revolution and Profender for cats. I would also make sure to have him tested for feline leukemia and feline immunodeficiency virus (FeLV and FIV). I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further!
