“Rule #1—Don’t have a pet door. I live in a semi-rural area, and if I had a pet door, every possum, skunk, raccoon, fox, small coyote, ground squirrel, jackrabbit, stray dog and feral cat in the county would find its way into my house.”
One of our cats found the neighbor’s pet door and discovered that he really liked the neighbor’s dog’s food. The dog was very old, small and blind so she basically hid from the cat, as far as we can tell. Anyway, one night said cat decided to explore the house and at 3 a.m. curled up in bed with one of the owners, scaring her to death.
We solved it by blasting the cat with an air horn from inside as my wife shoved him through the pet door. By the third time we couldn’t even get him near the door.
LOL. That would be WEIRD to wake up and find some stange cat curled up next to you on the bed.
"Honey, I think we just got a new pet."
