Thanks.
No. We are on a rural farm nearly 200 yards from a main road.
My 2 indoor cats seem to get along pretty well, but I don’t think would have too much trouble with a separation.
Well, it sounds like you’ve pretty much made up your mind and you want others to reassure you that it will be okay and you’re doing the right thing. Some will, but my own experience is it won’t and you aren’t. Dread regret when you are tempted to do something like this merely to escape such a minor hassle as the daily scoop.
Because of that, predatory animals would be more abundant. (The noise and commotion of a city would scare them away.)
