Your cat will always rely on you for food, water, safe shelter and regular veterinary cat care even though they appear independent. By doing this consistently you place yourself in a much better place to develop a mutual and rewarding relationship.
Make it a point to get a cat ID tag and collar that has your address,name and telephone number information. By ensuring that your cat is wearing one you ensure there safe return home in the event they find themselves lost and outside in strange surroundings.
Keep your cat inside if at all possible. This action will ensure that the community, your cat and you are doing what's best for all involved.
Make the decision to neuter or spay your cat as soon as possible. This one simple action will help reduce the incident of cat overpopulation and assist in keeping them healthier.
In the final analysis it's up to you to make sure your cat is trained not to act in a way you don't like. This would include scratching furniture and jumping on counter tops. Despite popular opinion your cat can be trained like any other animal. It's important to have patience,effort and understanding when doing it.

If resolving these starts become a major concern then communicate with your local animal shelter and/or veterinarian to figure out a resolution.
