My point is, our cat never had a taste of the 'outdoors' for the first year or two of her life, and she made the decision that she wanted to try the outdoors and see if she liked it. Cats are smart animals and will let you know if they need/want anything. --johnc [ astrovax, linus, decvax, cornell ] !dartvax!johnc
