Finally, someone lets their cat out earlier than me. I let Patch out at 5:30... and by the time I wake up, usually about 7:30, she would have been out and back for the day... she might go out again hours later and again after dinner for a short while, but like I said, she is a self made indoor cat... and so far, she is good as gold... I only once saw some blood on the step by the flap but it certainly wasn't from her...

Same. Although the foxes round here don't take any shit from cats and happily go for them if they get too close.
Other cats are more of an issue by an order of magnitude though. After less than a year of becoming an outdoor cat, ours has gone from pristine to having shaved patches, a limp and weird stomach issues from time to time.
Every morning when I let him out at 5am, it's a case of "it's been nice knowing you. Please come back intact and wake us up again at 7".
