We let Mattie and Evie out for the first time this afternoon. We would have done it last weekend but it was very wet. Our garden is very small and we weren't really sure what the reaction to being outside would be. We are tyring to avoid them going straight into the neighbours garden and using that as their litter tray.
The upshot was that Evie was investigating wildly and managed to terrorise a family of robins we have in the ivy at the bottom* of the garden. Mattie didn't even make it half way to the end. Anyway, as we were fearing for the lives of the birds we got them both in after not a very long time. I do hope the robins need to move on soon - for their own sake.
*this word gives the wrong impression. If someone says to me something along the lines of 'it's at the bottom of the garden' I would assume some distance away, or at least a reasonable distance. Our garden has more of a courtyard appearance about it.
