Well now that Tryon has come out of her shell and started playing, she's also trying to make "the great escape". She's been overly interested in the front door lately, and this morning while I was headed back inside she tried to bolt. Luckily I saw her poking her nose out and I slammed the door quick. Opened it again just enough to stick my hand in and shoo her away before I could get inside. Worried that she might try to make a run for it again, and know that if she did, she wouldn't come back. Not that I think she doesn't like it here or anything... but one, I found her as a stray outdoors... and two, there are so many wild creatures in the area (dogs, raccoons, snakes, etc) that I don't even think she'd make it across the street... they'd be on to her in a second. I know cats are good hunters and all, but the raccoon I saw the other day could have taken ME out, let alone a 9lb cat.
So any ideas on how to keep an indoor cat indoors? I'm worried I might come home half asleep one day, open the door too quick and out she goes.
