Goofy bolted out the front door

He decided he wanted to bust out the front door when i opened the screen
door.
Then he came back 2 minutes later poked around then decided to come in when
i opened the door.
After that he sat in the kitchen by the back door wanting to go out 3
minutes after coming in the front door.
Any readers here have cats that cant make up there mind? in or out?

I'm expecting him to stay outside for shorter times as the weather gets
colder and colder

IMHO he is training you to open the door for him and apparently it
works. MLB

OMG. I remember when all 4 cats had a door wish. I also remember when
Yoda
would back up away from the (open) front door when it was raining, and
then go
to the back door and ask out. Like it wasn't raining in the *back*
yard.

The crime novelist John D. MacDonald wrote a captivating book about his
various pets, primarily two cats that he had for years. In it he tells
of the time one of them pulled this off.

Storms in Florida can sometimes have sharply defined squall lines, going
from full on to not a drop in just a few yards. One day one of
MacDonald's cats asked out the front door and found it pouring out
there. So, as he had done untold times before, he asked out the back
door. MacDonald was in the middle of his usual "Why do we have to do
this every time" speech as he swung the back door open -- and found the
grass not even wet. As the cat marched out the door he looked over his
shoulder with a disdainful look that clearly said, "Oh, ye of little
faith!"

Who ever thought up the word "Mammogram"? Every time I hear it, I think
I'm supposed to put my breast in an envelope and send it to someone.

Goofy looks like my first cat "Friskie" who was my 10th birthday
present. Best wishes for finding that door into summer. MLB
