Thread: Indoor cat obsessed with windows

All cats want to experience the outside world, chase after that squirrel or bird they saw, and generally enjoy the outdoors. It doesn't make you a bad owner by keeping them inside. I expect many of us have the same problem, but the cats eventually realise that certain windows will be opened for them and others stay on the latch. Mesh screens are a great idea, providing you can secure them and don't mind looking out through them.

It is funny how they seem to know when a window is opened in a room somewhere in the house. There were no cats upstairs yesterday afternoon, so I opened my bedroom windows for a few minutes, but within moments there was a stampede up the stairs and three of my MCs charged into the room and on to the sill. Luckily, they are not silly enough to go outside and I shut the windows quickly. Have you ever seen disappointment x 3?
