telling myself that he obviously wasn't the one for me... i do wonder
just how long i can keep telling myself this.
I liked him a lot, but never felt like i could tell him about all the
bad things that have happened. Maybe that's a sign.
I am part way through tma05. A bit of a struggle as i am not 100%
certain that i am answering the question. But i am now going to see this
through.
I had Monday off work, and now have a door on my study, and a cat
flap! Charlie ran off in fear Monday evening, so Tuesday i draped it in
ham, and offered him tasty treats. He wasn't interested. So instead i
strung the flap open and eventually curiousity overcame him and he stuck
his nose through the flap and jumped out. I left it open all night and i
think he must have gone in and out. I woke around 4 and realised that he
wasn't on my bed, so went downstairs expecting to see him outside unable
to get in, but he was just sitting around in the dining area (not that i
have a dining table...) and jumped outside through the flap again.
I have left it open today, so that he gets used to it, and then i'm
going to try it with the flap down. I don't think he likes the flapping
noise.

hi smallkat, not being funny but you shd really LOCK his catflap at night for 2 very good reasons. 1, two things happen at night: clear roads make the motorist put their foot down + clear roads make the cat more confident about crossing roads = more feline deaths during the night. And 2, cats hunt 24/7 but nightime is their top time and more wildlife gets hunted & killed overnight than during the day. Your cat can get used to coming & going all day long & will quickly adjust to a routine where he is in all night with his mum. Locked catflaps at night mean lots less death, not least Charlie's.
