Windows and balcony
Secure openings so curiosity does not become a fall or escape route. A secured balcony or enclosure can be a great lookout.
A safe home should still be an exciting home. Remove risks the cat cannot assess, while providing plenty to use body and mind.

Provide approved adventures
