Smokey has been an inside/outside cat since we found him. Yes, he was initially a stray. But after I saw him, I thought he was too pretty to stay a stray. So I claimed him and dubbed him "Smokey". Clever huh? lol. That was about 4 years ago, and he was already full grown - so that makes him about 6 years old now.
But like I said, he's been inside/outside for his whole life - until now! I knew going into this we'd have a couple of accidents on the carpet to start because he's not used to the litter box. So after the first night (2 accidents) he hadn't had an accident all day and I was getting worried. So I go over to the litter box and start moving the litter around with the pooper scooper and he gets all curious and jumps right in. He sniffed around for a bit before he used it! I was so proud of him! lol. Am I completely lame?
He used it again this morning. I'm a proud mama! lol. Now he's just chilling on the carpet under our bed. He loves the carpet. I thought he'd be a pain and want to go outside all the time. Lucky for us, no whining and he seems to be liking that he's the only pet in this apartment. So far, so good. I hope he keeps up this good behavior.
Here's Smokey in the car on the way to the apartment
