Taking care of an elderly parent, and we have a 2 1/2--month old male kitten that is as fast as a greyhound.
I am woried to death he will escape and run out a door whenever one of us goes outside. We both are ever so careful--pulling the inner door closed behind us when out in the yard, etc. I know we will get the microchip inserted when he is old enough (vet said that happens when he gets fixed at 6--months).
Well, yesterday, he got out while I wasn't home and became so scared by this new experience of the outdoors that he, thank God, scampered back in the house--much to the relief of my mom.
How did all of you deal with an active cat that was a stay--in only cat?
