Poor old Oscar is properly confused by the cat flat. He goes out into the outhouse and then stands at the little door sniffing the air coming through and meowing to be let out.
Sometimes he presses the top – at the hinge – with his feet, but he can’t work out that all he needs to do is press the bottom with his nose and it would flip open. Instead, I have to bend down and hold it open for him so he can shuffle out.
And then, 20 minutes later, he’s sat on the front step, meowing to be let in. Whether that’s because the flap is equally confusing from the outside, or he considers the tradesman’s entrance too degrading, I don’t know.
Either way it leaves me with a question… how do you train your cat to use a cat flap?
