Some of you may remember me mentioning that my cat Donut had 4 kittens in June of last year. 2 of them went to friends, and we kept Bob & Kevin (the one who recently broke his tail)
When the kittens came out of the kitten pen, Donut totally refused to come in the house anymore, and has been living in the rabbit shed ever since. I seriously thought of rehoming her, so she would get a warm fireside home, as an only cat. Anyway, for the last week, she's been coming into the house. She's now progressed to eating with the other 3 cats, and even sits in the lounge with us during the day and all evening. Not managed to keep her in all night yet, as she'd be shut in the kitchen with the other 3 and the Tilly dog and I don't want to push her. She still growls when the other cats or the dogs go near her, but last night, her and the coon were laid on the sofa together. She's now laid on the back of the sofa. I think we've made great progress, and I'm so pleased she wont be spending another winter outside, whilst I feel warm and guilty. I don't know why she had the sudden change of heart - everytime i brought her in before, she just cried to go out - now she's always sitting at the door in the mornings, waiting to come in!

Im so pleased for you. We moved in June and our cats still wont go outside unless I go with them. So I know how bad it can be when your kits decided they dont like something
