I'm wondering How can you stop an indoor/outdoor harness trained young cat from

....... Bolting out of the front door everytime its is opened? http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/ima.../angryfire.gif

Ever sense I've, on harness and lesh only, allowed Bindi outside freedom he's been waiting by the door and dashing out everytime its opened. I've read in a cat book that all you need to do is cover him all up with a towel before going out and coming back in and releaseing him outside or inside. That way he never sees anything other then the towel when moving in and out of the house.http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/ima...lies/agree.gif

Good idea? http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/ima...s/confused.gif

Interesting way of posting smilies

IMO, the towel thing is a lot of work just so he doesn't bolt out. How long has he been harnessed trained? He should identify the leash to going out and not the door.
