... that is what I woke up to last night. There are a flock of geese that live outside our apartment complex in the fall and winter and 8-Bit is bound and determined to kill them all. He just has to figure out how to break through a sliding glass door and get to them. His first attempt is trying to paw through, this morning I caught him trying to hang on the latch. We shall see what his next attempts bring.

Oh just to let everyone know there is NO way on earth he could get this door open. We have a safety bar with a small pad lock on it to make sure he can't get it open. That is unless he somehow learns how to use a key.

Umm....with Bit you never know! My Jacob is an excellent door opener! He just hasn't figured out the latch on our sliding doors either, not for lack of trying! He thinks you have to go through an inside door that's slightly ajar by jumping up and grabbing the door handle!

I know... that's the scary part. He's looked at the padlock before, and thought about it.

I know... 8-Bit often is upset that he is a cat. He is waiting for the day he wakes up and is human.

We live on the 12th floor, so I feel no guilt. He can't get out there or it would be dangerous. The last thing I want to see is him tring to ballance on the railing.
