Savouring the Scents of the Great Outdoors

This summer we started to let Toffee venture out into the porch
at the front of the house.
He likes to stand there while we throw balls for Fudge to fetch.
So far he seems content to stay within the porch, not venturing further
than the flowerpots, and rushing back into the house if some particularly noisy traffic goes past.
He enjoys the limited amount of freedom which this brings and can be seen literally smelling the great outdoors.

A picture of concentration. He's been taught well if he continues to be wary of traffic.

It's a whole 'nother world out there Toffee! Lovely shot of him.

Watching a bird? Lovely moment of concentration. v

A lovely photo Mairead. You are lucky that Toffee stays put in the porch if there is a bit of traffic about. My Monty spends most of the day outside mainly in the garden but then we don't have much traffic. v

Love the little curve on his nose.

We had a cat once that used to look at us like that - usually when he wanted our food. We called him the land shark.

Great portrait of your pretty kitty checking out the scents. I'm glad he gets outdoor and that he's cautious too. V.
