Escape

Cats Protection told me that it would be a good idea to keep Ozzy indoors for a month so that he really gets to know his new home.  I thought, fine, no problem.  I decided to take some laundry outside to the washing line in the garden and I closed the door behind me.  When I opened the door to go back in, Ozzy shot out so fast I couldn't catch him.  When I tried to make further attempts to catch him, he ran away, so I went back inside worried that he would not know how to get back home.  I think he did a sort of roughly circular recce and eventually after about an hour and a half he came back and sauntered in the door.  He is now sleeping the sleep of the innocent.  The battle of wills, human versus cat, will continue.
