Aww! poor kitty heheh they usually find a way even waiting hours till someone comes along and opens the door to sneak through :-)
ReplyDeleteHave a patienttastic day :-)
And there usually is a way too. So precious.
ReplyDeleteI've got the code over at my place if you want it.
Have a purrfect Feline Friday. ☺
Whining will probably do the trick.
ReplyDeleteEven if kitty can't open the door himself, bumping it continually will usually get the door open at our house.
ReplyDeleteToo bad kittens don't know how to knock. Hard to do with soft furry paws.
ReplyDeleteIncessant meowing and scratching should do it. Sweet little thing.
ReplyDeletetiny baby!
ReplyDeletehee hee- if kitties can get in they will find a way!
ReplyDeleteI closed my bedroom door on Kitty one night. She clawed and clawed until I finally gave up and let her in. I also noticed that she clawed and my carpet at the door and torn it up pretty good. Kitty is a juvenile delinquent.
