Now she's made her point and got you giving her all that attention when
you get home, she's decided to let you go out.

Cats know when you're due home. Mine can't see me coming - no windows on
that side of the apartment, but I think they can hear me. I have a
little wooden table by the door to hold keys etc, and also of course a
cat, Kerry, who perches there to welcome me as I come in the door.


Boyfie was indoor/outdoor. If he was indoors he knew the sound of my
car when I arrived home from work and would dash out from the back door
and scale the gate to greet me.
Now I've retired and have two new cats. I don't leave them alone much,
but when I do they don't seem to notice and never greet me when I get
home. I kind of miss that delight that Boyfie always showed when he saw
me again.
