OMG that would cause the biggest fight of them all - he'd come out ready and looking for someone to pounce on! He'd stalk all the others until he had tangled with each and every one of them - even Allen (who'd kick his butt! )

I already know the kittens will be caged in the front room. Had planned on that.

Fox-gal, the door will not close. No way to tie it closed, and a wedge wouldn't stay. We tried a latch on the outside -- nothing stayed closed. The house is OLD and settled too much. Nothing in the hallway is square (even the floor slants on a pretty good angle! So everyting we tried the cats can squeeze through by taking advantage of the unlevel-ness. We tried all those things when Allen was an itty bitty kitten and we wanted to keep him safe from SamDog who thought Allen woud make a nice meal.
