My cat has been an indoor and screened porch cat forever. My dog is indoor and outdoor. She sleeps at night inside for sure and is in and out throughout the day to use the bathroom and play in the yard.

I have 2 cats that are both indoors all of the time (unless they escape -- little Ratters is VERY quick to sneak outside when he sees his chance!) My dog also stays inside most of the time, although like all dogs, she does get to go outside to exercise and to go to the bathroom. We have a stake and lead that we clip her to so that she can be outside without having to be on a leash. Unfortunately she's not like my previous dog in that if she's loose, she'll go running off; Joni, my previous mastiff, knew the yard's boundaries so I could just open the front door and she'd stay in the yard while she went about her business.

We have two outdoor cats, but they come in to eat, and also when it's very cold out. I do have several fish in two fish tanks, so I guess they would count as indoor pets.

I have a cat and she very rarely goes outside. There are so many big dogs and Im afraid that will get to her.

We have 4 cats and they NEVER go outside.  I can't tell you how many beautiful cats I see lying dead in the middle of the street because people don't keep them indoors.  What's the point of having a beautiful cat or dog as a pet if you're just going to let them out to fend for themselves, and perhaps get attacked by another animal or get run over, anyway?

No, do not like pets in the house.  I have a dog who lives outside.

I have one dog that loves to go out, but mostly he wants to be inside. The other dog hardly ever wants to come inside, unless it's too cold. In the winter he stays out most of the day, but comes in for the night.

I have a mostly indoor cat and two dogs that go in and out. I care for dogs and they mostly stay outdoors in the cooler temps and indoors when it's hot.

Our cat, Muggles, is an indoor/outdoor cat.  We knew from the first day we got him he would have to go outside.  Before we starting letting him out he would jump on our back screen door and hang there meowing.........let me out, let me out.  He does really well, he's not a fan of the front yard, I think the cars scare him.  Our dog, Midas, is in and out but mainly an indoor dog.

I don't have a pet.  Too much upkeep and it's all about me.

Yes.
I have a Ragdoll Cat he stays inside. I tried to put him on a leash/harness so I could take him outside, but he wasn't having it.  So that was that.

I have 4 cats and they all stay indoors.  I would never dream of letting them out.  "Outside" is where they all began their lives.  Now, they're treated like "royalty," LOL.  Love my Kittehs!

Yes, I have a house cat that sometimes goes outside. She usually like to stay outside for only an hour and then shes at my window meowing to get back in.
