Oh man, today Lexi and Aaron took their kitties outside on their leashes. I swear, their cats are some of the most domesticated cats I have ever known. Felix only lasted about ten minutes outside before running up to the door and running inside the house. Didot on the other hand, was quite curious. But she was easily frightened by any sound whatsoever. Whenever she got spooked, she ran to her favorite hiding place: under the prickly evergreen tree. It was terrible to try and get her out from under that tree. It is a small tree that is low to the ground, so trying to drag a terrified cat out from underneath can prove to be a nightmare. Especially when she wraps her leash all around the base of the tree. Goodness. Eventually, however, we got Didot out from under the tree, brushed the sharp needles off of her and went back inside.
Felix was funny in that the moment he got back inside, he ran to the litter box to relieve himself. I suppose the thought never crossed his mind that he could go to the bathroom outside…that crazy cat. Didot was a little bit shaken up, but she was fine. I just don’t think we will be taking them outside again any time soon.
