Update on Sally...
(not such great news I'm afraid)
She is now back to racing out of her room as fast as she can as soon as she has got some food down her. If I block the door, she will stay and partially relax, and even play, but it's obvious she will not go in there if I'm not there which is a worrying development, as uneaten food stays there from when I was in the room, and it's obvious she hasn't been back in in the meantime.
I refuse to put her food outside, as so far she has gone in for food only, so I was thinking if she gets accustomed to that, she will 'come round' sooner or later.
I do put water outside though, as I guess she will not feel inspired to brave the room just for water. It would be dangerous for her to get dehydrated.
(Meanwhile however, she hasn't lost any weight, and is fit, healthy-looking and well!)
She will sleep outside (and it is lovely out there right now) but oddly, where she would actually be in more danger IF a dog turned up! When I left her today she was in a deep sleep right in the open.
I think that the other day she came in because it was so bad outside. (Or a tip from Misty?? LOL)
I am hoping she will do things more sensibly when the Autumn comes.
There is no danger at all in her room. Dogs can't get through her cat door. It is a safe haven. But she has now developed a neurotic habit about it -well past the time when any danger was there!
