    In our old house she was a dumbass and could not sort out the little pet door. Refused for several days so we gave up and kept the rubber flap off for a year.

    This one she sorted out in like 2 minutes. We were shocked actually. On her first go I realized the top step needed to stick out further so I replaced that quickly. She still dislikes the plastic door flap. But uses it every day.

    sorry to hear that, I always worry when the cats get out that’s their worse enemy. I keep mine on the leash if they go out.

    Lose one, save two. So sad about Bailey, but it sounds like the next two will have a good home.

    Happy ending story:

    Last night the weather was perfect so I lit the firepit. It started getting late and the wife went in....I hung around for awhile. A little after 11 I heard the faint cry of a cat. At 1st it sounded far away. I shut the music off on my phone to get a better listen. Heard it again. Only this time I realized it wasn't that far away....just pitiful and faint.

    I have a large backyard and I had the floodlights off to enjoy the fire. Plus I have a 6' privacy fence that surrounds the property. That makes the shadowing in the lower part of the yard even worse. But I was fairly certain I could see a light colored mass in the far corner.

    I went and got my 12 year old who is the whisperer of all animals. I stayed away for fear of scaring it. Within a couple of minutes my daughter and some cat I didn't know were loving on each other.

    He had a tag and is name was Steve. At 1st I assumed he was someone's indoor/outdoor cat. I wasn't going to call the number. But my daughter said, I don't think so dad. He's too clean and polished. Plus he kept going to the fence corner and reaching up and crying. She said call the number even if it was late.

    So I did. A woman answered and I explained who I was and why I was calling. She was frantic and said she was 500 miles away visiting family. Her husband was home. Steve was strictly and indoor cat and must have gotten out somehow.

    I gave her my address and within a few minutes the husband was there....and absolutely humble and thankful. I told him no worries and that of all the backyards to end up in....this was a good one.

    Never heard him scale the fence. And not sure why he didn't climb back over it. But he was clearly out of his element and scared.
