Reference:
the ruddy dog keeps opening the door, going out for 10 seconds, running back in, I get up to close the door, he opens it, runs outside....* repeat to fade*
The cats are doing the same sort of thing karms, asking to go out so I open the door and instantly let all the heat out and freeze me bojangles off and then they stick a nose out and run back in again. 5 mins later, same thing. I've locked me and them in the living room now and no amount of scratching or meowing is going to change my mind, oh no!
