I have two 7 1/2 month old kittens who are, as of about a week ago, completely obsessed with getting outside. They are indoor, fixed cats and have never really expressed an interest in this before. Now, every time we open the door they both dart outside. One cat, Mittens, begins eating plants immediately, and the other, Tate, just pokes around skittishly. We can't do anything to deter them--we've tried spray bottles, mostly. It is dangerous because we live close to an alley where people go too fast, and they are intensely afraid of cars.
In the past two days, Mittens is constantly mewing at the door, extending himself up on it, etc. He is doing it right now! And it is beginning to worry me because he mews incessantly for hours in different tones. Is there a reason why they would want outside so badly? And what can we do, if anything, to keep them in?
Thanks,
Adrienne
