Title: Cooper has finally realised that 'outside' isn't that scary!
Post by: Cooper & Peanut on April 09, 2011, 14:53:32 PM: Cooper has been terrified of the outdoors for as long as I've known him (which is only 7 months) but since the nice weather has been showing its face, he has finally "grown a pair" and is now frolicking in the back garden, pouncing on all the various beasties!! :evillaugh:

He's being tentative but his confidence is growing all the time! ;D

Just need him to work out how to use the catflap going out (he knows how to come back in through it! :shify:)

I'm feeling extremely proud, like my son has taken his first steps! :) :Luv2:

I'm 50% happy he's enjoying the sunshine and freedom but 50% sad cuz I've now got 2 to worry about. At least when Coops was indoors all the time, I knew where he was and I knew he was safe. Everytime Peanut trots out the catflap I panic that she won't return for various reasons...

:scared:

Post by: lau200 on April 09, 2011, 18:09:40 PM: i just had a major panic when i couldn't find maddie. my older girls often pop next door but they are out and i thought she maybe been stuck in next doors. 20 mins later she comes flying in from nowhere, and i still have no idea where she was- i hope cooper is better behaved!

I bet your heart was beating like a drum! They do worry us! At the moment, Coops is just staying in the garden, however I saw him begin to venture, so I shook the treat box and got him in. Patio door now shut, so unless he figures out how to use the catflap, he's staying put! :evillaugh:

Post by: Guest on April 15, 2011, 23:27:12 PM: He is sooooo handsome (Peanut is gorgeous too). It is a worry. Ella is currently on supervised outside visits at the moment - however my supervision skills are crap as each time she managed to get onto the roof of the house! We never had a roof before so she is quite taken with it!

I know what you mean about worrying them.
