Thank you everyone who has replied to my post yesterday. Miss Domino stayed away again all day yesterday and came home again around 8:30 PM. I was then able to confine her to the garage as usual and she seems to be getting a little more comfortable with the garage. I called our veternarian this morning and he advised confining her to the garage for the next couple of days so that she would realize that the dog is no longer there. I sure hope this works. We had tried bringing her into the house last year after our previous indoor cat Leo passed away and she was always wanting to go back outside. I would love for her to be an indoor cat only but she seems to enjoy the outside better since she has lived outdoors all her life. She came to us as a stray 10-11 years ago and has always been a real homebody until now. I will keep everyone posted on how she is doing.
