If you have new cats you should let them walk around in you house.
The cats are going to hide but they do get more use to you when they are around you(or even when they are around your dog, cat etc).I got a sheet to from the vet to! it said to keep them in one room but i have worked (i was a vet before for 13 years)with cats in the past and they need to move around your house.
Not if they are all in your house. If you own a shelter or have a HUGE yard where you let them roam free with a fence, then probably.
different people will do different things I personally would let the cat roam freely because some cats are house cats but others like to explore

Cats do not have a legal right to roam freely in urban areas. Owners are responsible for ensuring their cats do not cause harm or nuisance to others.
Lizards need a pretty specific enclosure and diet whereas cats can just roam about the house and be fed cat food which is easy to buy from the supermarket. They both have needs though which you should research before buying either one.
Cats do not need to be walked like dogs. They are independent animals that typically prefer to roam freely indoors.
Sometimes people let their cats be outside cats because they do not like them in the house. Other times they do it because they think it cruel to confine them. Outside cats have been known to have shorter life-spans than inside cats. They are exposed to more things.
Cats can roam in the wild in almost every state in the USA, however, they will probably freeze to death in Alaska during the winter, if they are outdoors.
As long as the dog or cat leaves the raccoon alone, then the raccoon shouldn't harm them. If the raccoon feels threatened, if it is cornered or it is injured and the cat or dog is being intimidating, then the raccoon may feel the need to defend itself which could cause harm to the other animal. Also, if the raccoon is rabid, it may attack another animal which could prove very harmful to the cat or dog as unless rabies is treated promptly and properly, it is fatal.
Cats do not have a legal right to roam freely in most places. Many jurisdictions have laws that require cats to be kept indoors or on a leash to protect wildlife and prevent nuisance behavior. Owners are responsible for ensuring their cats do not cause harm or damage to others.
House cats are not native wildlife and should not be allowed to roam freely. It is not good for the environment and is cruel to the cat. That's why they are called "house" cats. While raccoons rarely will attack a cat, it does happen. Cats can also be infected with rabies, distemper and other diseases by raccoons.
Cats generally prefer to roam freely on their own rather than being walked like dogs. They are independent animals that enjoy exploring their surroundings at their own pace.
