Happy Caturday folks.
In case you didn’t see it, last weekend I added an upper door to the cat house, as an emergency exit. Check out that post for details.
Here’s Porcini by the new back door:
Two cats inside the house; the new door gives them another window to look out:
A cat peeking around the corner of the house while I was refilling their food; very brave approaching that close:
Two cats hunting for food I sprinkled on the ground as a treat (it’s a fun game):

After a couple of days for them to get used to the concept of the new door, I removed the stick that was holding it open:

The reason I added that upper back door was as an emergency exit in case a raccoon came in when a cat was inside. Well, that happened this week, though ironically the raccoon headed straight for the upper level, so the cat was able to go out the front:

That didn’t put off the cats, though. Here are three inside a few hours later:
Spud was in the left cabin, and Poppa arrived; Spud greeted him in the traditional way:
Then Poppa settled down in the right cabin:
Here they are again as it got brighter:
They were both still there when I did my morning rounds:
They didn’t even notice me standing nearby at first:
Moments later they evacuated, then came back after I was gone, and stayed most of the day.
