It makes life so much easier when you are bringing in groceries or whatever, and I don't have to worry about him getting out and possibly hurt.

Try this! Cats are very motivated to get treats and you just have to work this in your favor!
OMG!! that is a fabulous idea!! I would have never thought of that!!! I will try it! Loki is a very smart boy, lets see if this works!!! Thank you so much!!
