Cat Question
DU'ers are animal lovers so can I ask for your advice.
In April my cat Chloe I had to put down due to kidney disease, we had her for about 18 to 19 years. She was a stray who never left us, who went indoors and outdoors. We mourned her loss.
In September we decided to adopt Daisy 5 yrs from the SPCA. Beautiful cat has some what of an attitude, I guess I would be too if my owners had to give her up cause they were moving out of the country and had to make the decision to have her go to the SPCA for about 5 months.
We adopted her, had her stay in the house for the required 6 weeks. Then we decided to let her out with supervision, she started to wander into other neighbors yards we quickly retrieved her. We decided to let her stay indoors until she got more familiar with us and her surroundings and for her to come when she hears her name.
Cats are beautiful creatures they know how to survive and when they know they can count on you as a food source they come back. She hates a collar and a leash, and has been microchipped. Should I just get over my fear and let her out unsupervised? Thanks any suggestions would be helpful.

Not this exact one, but you get the idea. This was my previous cat's favorite place to nap. 
I got the kind with the faux sheepskin that's like a little hammock. It just bolts to the windowsill. The cats aren't fussy as long as they're comfortable and mine enjoy watching the birds - and anything else that wanders by. We have very cute bunnies in the side yard.
There were overhead ramps, that kind of thing, but I'm not nearly that clever! My cat has access to a "cat tree," likes sitting on top of it or napping in the hammock.
This is the closest I could find:
Not to mention predators. Where I lived for awhile, the neighbors had little horses and one of the women said that once when she was out with them she came face-to-face with a coyote. And that wasn't very far from main roads and the highway. 
And I'd ask your vet about the best diet, that's what I always do. My cat gets a small can of Wellness wet food each day (though he rarely finishes it) and he always has dry food available - Fromms. Though my cat is male and weighs 15 pounds. He was 2.6 lbs. when I found him as a kitten.
If she's not overweight, I wouldn't worry unless she keeps on gaining. I took my cat to the vet for inoculations recently and he said that my cat needs to lose one pound by his next visit. 
I found him as a tiny kitten in a grocery store parking lot three years ago last August. I had no idea what he looked like, he was just eyes in the dark, took three of us to catch him. I just couldn't leave the little one there, plus, they were doing construction. But I think he has grown into a beautiful cat! 
As a little kid, the first cat I knew was a gray tabby - my grandmother's cat. I loved him so much! But he wasn't thrilled with me. 
I found him three years ago as a tiny kitten in a grocery store parking lot. He was not the friendliest, took three of us to finally catch him, but he's come pretty far. He asks for affection now and he really loves my dog.
Felix and his favorite toy: 
Launch the rocket to place the satellite in a stationary orbit about 2,000 feet above your neighborhood. Place a tracking device on your cat (similar to an I'd chip). Let the cat out and track the cat as it travels about your neighborhood - watch the cat's location on Google Earth until it gets back home.
If it fails to show up home take the laptop to better find and pin point it's last location. Also you should bring a can of 9Lives cat food and a hand held crank can opener. At the last tracking point open the cat food can, put the cat food into the dish, and make kiss-kiss noises with your lips, all while saying the cat's name.
Good luck to you and your cat.
You should be able to procure most of the hardware at a local Radio Shack.
wow technology is something else huh?
