The Front Door

The front door is an interesting spot in our house.  Used to be we were worried about kitty escapees but now we worry about ferret flee-ers.

It used to be that Oliver was the top escaper.  Now he is solidly an indoor kitty - if you leave him a wide berth with the open door for an extended amount of time he will take you up on it.  But for the most part he is happy to hang inside.  Emma will not go out without permission.  Zoey likes to go on the porch but won't stray any further.  Aggie is afraid of outside and Phoebe has been eyeing the door lately - I think we have to keep an eye on her.

Clooney runs up to the door but typically won't go through....but then we have Madison and the babies.  OMG - Madison has gotten just awful.  She runs full throttle to try to get through the door - she is fast.  Violet is not much better and if you have both of them at the same time in the same spot - good luck to you.  Finn is the least ornery of the three when it comes to the door but he still does try to make a break for it.  I am considering setting up the playpen around the door for the time being so you can get in without worry that a little one will escape.
