First of all he is fine. I don't post much about Potter so a quick summary, I inhereted Potter last August when my brother passed away.
Potter was allowed outside and my brother lived on a horribly busy street. When I adopted him I tried to make a rule that he could not go out, this lasted about a week, he constantly cried at doors and snuck out when the kids went in and out.
I thought well he must be outdoor savvy he was okay at my brothers. Lately he has been wandering too far and even going out and laying in the street. My kids have said he has followed them to a friends house 5 houses away so I told them to bring him home and put him inside when he does this.
Well tonight a very nice lady that always comes by when she walks her bijon and she adores potter she comes and tells me that she has him in her garage, she lives 20 houses away! I went and got him. She is a lovely lady and almost cried when he left, he is an extremely affectionate cat.
She lost her cat 2 years ago, I told her my house has so many teens in and out that if she loves him she can talk to her hubby about adopting him...please don't flame me I am thinking of his best interest. My dogs are good and do not dart out the door but I am at my wits end with him.
Any ideas on how to curb the outdoor craving, she suggested a leash for him?
