Just like Yumyum, my cat Sam has asked to go out first thing in the morning after she has eaten her breakfast. My kids and I on different occasions have opened the front door for her when she asks to go ME-OUT! She asks us nicely so we always get the door for her so she can sit on the front porch and enjoy the fresh air. Of couse some days she just turns right around and comes back in if the weather isn't to her liking!
