Glad that nothing happened to Cinders. But perhaps a little more care is
in order when going in or out? I have never had either of my two cats get
out when I was going in or out. I usually come in empty handed or with
only a little stuff. Tuck the cats away into a bedroom and bring in the
rest. After it is all inside I then let them out.

These days I put Rusty in his room and close the door before I go out.
Yesterday I opened the door to talk to my neighbour. Rusty, who was
sleeping, dashed out the door. I live in a highrise, so its not hard to
catch
him in the hallway. He just went and sniffed on another neighbour's doorway.
Another time he sliipped out when I opened the door to pickup the newspaper.
I didn't realized he was outside until I heard his meowing.
