My cat, Kitty, gets in the fridge almost every time I open it. He gets on the bottom shelf and turns himself around so he is looking out. He seems to like it in there, and won't get out when it's time for me to close the door. He has even jumped from the counter into the freezer! He will hunker down in there and look out, but won't leave, even when he is shaking his paws cause they are cold! Don't worry, I always know when he gets in the fridge because he nearly trips me on his way in...and the freezer is right at eye level, so there's no way he could get in there without me noticing it. My question is: why does he do this??? there's nothing in there that he would want, I'm sure, because I'm a vegetarian. And he never seems interested in the food anyway, he just makes himself comfortable on the bottom shelf and looks out. He's very odd!

Cats like small spaces... boxes, cabinets, and yours.... the fridge!
My Lucky runs to the kitchen when I am in there, and meows for me to open the cabinet for her to go inside... I have an empty cabinet just for her

Mine all try to get in the fridge, they like to explore everything. I just make sure no ones inside when I shut the door.

Baby Bonnie likes to get into the fridge on the bottom shelf, but I know exactly why she does it...it's because that is where the yogurt is and she's a Yoplait addict!
Hannah does it because that's where the cheese is and she's the cheesemeister!!
I don't have a problem letting her explore, but I'm always afraid her little head is going to get whacked by the door one of these days.
You could always make sure to put containers on the bottom shelf at the front of the shelf to deter him getting ON the shelf.

Because he is smart!! and he knows that is where the food is
Moose will launch himself out of nowhere from the floor into the freezer and I pull him out right away. I think it's just a new place to explore.
Ermagerd, my cat love the fridge. When she hops up on the counter she meows for me to open the cupboard so she can take a nap. And the fridge too. I usually have to take her out.
