I finally let them go...

I let Torao out on Monday morning. But he has been coming inside every night! Thus, there is no missed dose of antibiotics.
It looks like he is little more bolder inside the house. Yesterday, he was downstairs and trying to tell me something. Leo was not yet inside, so I thought he was waiting for him. But he kept staying downstairs even after Leo was in. I wonder what he wanted….? He liked playing with DaBird night before at stair way. I wonder he wanted playtime again?

It is miserable day today. Raining hard and cold. Both boys still went out but Torako refused. I brought her down and opened the door in front of her. She turned around and walked back upstairs! I hope she is behaving OK in the house.

Wow! I just finished reading this entire thread. What a time you have been through. I am so happy to see that your kitties like being inside now. Your heatbreak in the begining was hard to read, I am glad you and the kitties are better now. I love that you have continued the thread for so long. I will keep coming back to read it as long as you keep posting in it. I love hearing about your kitties. Kudos to you for all you have done to help them be comfortable both inside and out. You are an awsome kitty momma!

Thanks ink.
I don't have much ups and downs with kitties anymore, but I will keep writing if this will benefit and encourage others. Kitties DO understand human's indentations. That's why our kitties are the way they are ...

Little bragging to do….
Torao was on antibiotic for about 1 week. Few days ago, he came inside at night, but wanted to go back outside again. What's the harm for missing one dose? I decided to let him out. Skipping morning does is no big deal…
But I decided to give him pill in side of cheese ball anyway in the morning and he swallowed it good!
Ever since, I don't force him chees (pill) ball anymore. I give him little chees ball and he chews once or twice and swallows it! What a good kitty he is! May be he knows chees ball is to cure his bladder issue? (I did send message about that many times at the beginning).
We only have few days worth of pills left. I don't think he would miss any dose.

Day light saving time ended and outside gets darker sooner. Kitties are coming in earlier now. Torako seems to like staying inside more than staying out. She goes out in the morning and comes in as soon as we come home around 4 pm. She sometimes doesn't want to go out in the morning either. But I force to let her out. Once She turned around at the open door. I didn't force her that time. She eventually wants to go out when it's warmer or rain is stopped.

I'm happy to hear that Torao is taking his medicine so well now. Sounds like Torako would prefer to be an inside cat more than an inside/outside cat,LOL.
