I took both dogs for a pee break for the pup to the corner and tried a go at calling Laurel by name only and'meow meow': he came running full speed from the church backdrop and followed us home for about 300 metres. This is an excellent routine and serves everyone: Laurel comes home early and Charlotte gets an extra pee walk.
It is only the second time he follows me on a big distance in a 8-9 months. I had both dogs, that is why I think.
He seems to prefer it to being carried.
He stopped twice to lay down or follow a different course, I said'meow meow' a few times and he started following us again...He is a clever independent smart cat.
It is almost 10am.
