Hopefully she will be outdoor in time as the back garden as no roads just gardens .we have cat flap but will keep her in at nights and any time she wants to be indoors.

 

Wonderful. Sounds like our setup.

 

Spot the collie

 

Dewi still hasn't been out but I was hoping to open the back door today when it rains, I don't want him wandering too much on his first time outside since living here. We'll see what happens later ...

 

I hope he gets out and enjoys. He matches his lovely blanket ... or vice versa.

 

He's had a peep outside. I opened the kitchen door and went into the greenhouse, it's only about 2 yards from the kitchen door. There was some light rain, and Dewi came to the door, stood for a while, ventured outside the door for a few seconds, and then ran back into the house.
I tried calling him from the greenhouse hoping he'd follow me in there but he ran back into the house.

The blanket belonged to Bella but she would never use it.

 

It looks like it is on what we call a Monk's bench which we have linen in.. Ours in the Foyer which Munchkin likes to snooze on.

It would be a long wait around here.

 

Ah, lovely little friends

 

Dewi went out this morning, just for a few minutes, snooped around the patio and then went back inside. I was in the greenhouse and trying to call him in there, but he wasn't interested, I think he was a bit overwhelmed by the look on his eyes.
I gave him some food after he went back in, and he's lying on the windowsill now
We'll try again another day ...

 

It's good he knows where home is and where it's safe, tends to suggest he won't travel far and will come back home.
Just needs to build some confidence.

 

I suppose the cat enjoys being outside now.

Since Dewi was found with a broken leg I assume he was outside, but he hasn't been out since August so probably lost some confidence. Also I don't know the reason he had the broken leg, it was broken in several places and some of the bones were crushed, so something traumatic must have happened to him. It may take a while for him to get used to the outside again,
but since I live in a cul-de-sac there isn't much traffic, and the little road that passes the bottom of the garden is mainly used by locals and delivery vans, so I hope he'll get used to it in time.
He looks through the window and chatters to the birds
