Just loving this. Looks like a pretty comfy blankie. He’s got it made!

Yo TT. Mav is doing fine. I've finally got him (and the others) trained down to 2 meals per day! An early breakfast and dinner at 7pm. Some dry food is usually down all day, free for the pickens' between main feedings. Trying to prevent huge "cat belly syndrome", of course. I'll post a pic later.
How are you and January?
How are you and January?
Glad that Mav is doing well too! Yes, photos please!
Thanks for asking, January and I are fine.
Hope you are good too and stay safe!

sleepy little guy, part of every day and most of the night in my bed near to me. He absolutely loves the indoors, knows he's safe and secure.
He found his dream house.

1000 times better! Thanks to you!

a delivery package dropped outside our front door today....opened door to get it, and out bolts Mav! Within a minute he went directly down 2 doors to the neighbors garage where he lived prior. He'll be back when his tummy begins growling for food. At which time I'll bribe him to get back in my house.....never to allow this episode to repeat again.
My Captain is extremely interested in the outdoors. I read the TCS article about Door Darters
How To Prevent Your Cat From Darting Out The Door - TheCatSite
and decided to try the laser. It works quite well to distract him, but I need to be sure to have a satisfactory "ending", such as having the laser beam end on a toy so it's sort of like prey, rather than just disappearing. He really gets frustrated otherwise.
But, it sure is nice to be able to go out the door without the extra complication of a cat right there underfoot, ready to barrel out at the slightest opportunity.

So late last night he re-appears at the back door......guessing he finally missed his dinner! He's now back inside by his choice. Just fed him a big brekkie. Trust me ......this will never be repeated, totally my fault.
Guess he knows where is the best place.

Since he scooted out he now runs away from any door opening. I'd guess his curiosity has been satisfied....he finally knows where he's got it made.

Whew! Don’t know if you have or could use a screen door, but I find it helps as a buffer/shooing mechanism. Someone could make a fortune inventing a totally cat proof door. Glad he’s OK.
