ttroel, welcome to Pet Talk, I hope you stay around and converse with us. There are so many interesting topics and things to learn from each other. Tell us about your furkid(s).
Catland, the same thought has crossed my mind also. It could be that they are curious to see what they (thought) they have missed. But why so many? Sometimes there are 5 of them all waiting for me to open the door, so they can rush in and look around.The main problem with them doing this is getting them back out again. For some reason they stay in the room, and at times I have to go in there and flush them out, either with a spray bottle, or attempt to get their attention by calling them out. The worst one for this behavior is Cookie. What I worry about is shutting the door and there is one left in the room, without food, litterbox, or heat. It would not be the first time after going to bed hearing a cat crying, and then having to get back up and find where it is coming from -only to find that one got left inside, because they didn't come out when I called, or I didn't see them go inside before shutting the door. It is getting to the point that I have to make a head count (10) to make sure that they are all accounted for before going to bed!
(later) I am trying out entering a room and leaving the door open. It helps to correct their curious behavior.
