Izzy the calico cat is kept indoors, except for the catio. She is allowed in the yard under supervision, but is not allowed outside the fence. She protests to this gilded cage, but she is an urban princess and not prepared for the things that live in our woods. Still she tries, and did manage to slip out the door when I was distracted. I only found out when I let the dog out and she came sauntering back in covered in dust. She was quite pleased with herself. When I checked the trail cam, there were photos of her adventure, all the way out behind the chicken coop.


The pictures didn’t show any encounters with other critters. The series stopped after the one where she spotted another cat.
