Well it is for adults.
We're having a bit of a problem with our female cat.
She's always been a bit of a pain....she goes outside and as soon as she's out, she wants in, but doesn't really want in, it's almost as if she's happy knowing that the door / window is open.
Last night, it was lashing of rain...when she wants out, she picks at the window with her claws, which wakens me up, so i put her out of the bedroom she claws at the bedroom door...then if i let her in, she claws at the window and so on, if i let her out, she'd be out for half an hour then she'll be clawing at the other side of the window, again wakening me up.
Really not sure what to do.
We've had her for a year and a half. Her previous owner was an old lady who used to leave her outside all the time. She slept in the garage with her food and had a cat flap to go in and out. She's never been this bad before. Last night was the final straw where i really need to find out what the best thing to do.
Our other cat, he's male, he gets as annoyed with her as we do as he sits and growls when she meows...lol.
Anyone got any advice?
My first thoughts which i did start last week was to try and get her in a routing and keep her out all day and in all night, but locked out of the bedroom...however, last night she just wasn't giving up, she really wanted in the bedroom, to go outside, in the pouring rain....why!?
They have litter boxes (3 of them) in the house and plenty of food and water.
Thanks in advance for your comments...
