    OOP: “My Dad lives in Arkansas. He has been feeding an outdoor cat for over a year. He wasn’t sure she’d be able to survive this bad ice-storm, so he gently trapped her in the garage last week, to save her. She got blankets, a space-heater, and lots of food and cuddles. Now she doesn’t want to go back outside.”

    I noticed multiple posts on social media saying they were taking stray cats in during the freezing storm that the US just had. So many people don’t seem to realize once you feed a cat one time, they aren’t leaving.

    Yeah, I experienced this myself. Once the cat comes inside it doesn’t leave. I love my little Tobi though!

    I wish our outdoor was like that; we tried to entice her in so she wouldn’t be out in the ice storm by herself but she wasn’t having it.

    She does have a crawl space under the house though, and a little custom made shelter on our front porch that she enjoys at least.
