We've created a monster...
Nov. 5th, 2001 10:10 pmThat cat-on-a-leash experiment yesterday was a dubious success.
They now realize that the big room with the blue ceiling is a real place, not just a movie screen. They also realized that the screen in the window of the front room is loose.
We came home today to find them waiting outside for us. Weren't sure exactly how they'd gotten out, because someone had kindly put the screen back in place, but a few minutes later I caught them trying to break out again.
If it weren't for Jaycee's bad eye, and the fact that they've been raised indoors their whole life, I'd just go along with it and let them be outdoor cats.
In any case, they're getting name/address tags ASAP.
Now they've calmed down, and have stopped frantically throwing themselves at the window, and are back to curling up on my lap. Nice cats. Monsters, but nice.
