My stupid cat was chased up a tree about 10 days ago, by an evil dog. He stayed up there for 6 hours.
Since then, he will only go out if I'm with him. It's infuriating! Much as I love him I don't want to sit in my garden in November, nor pop out and in and out ad infinitum. Nor take a late night pre-bedtime wander.
Is there anything I can do to rebuild his confidence? It was my fault re the dog as I'd left the back gate open when I left for the afternoon.
Cat has an infrared cat flap, which he'll use to come in but won't go out through it.
Cat tells me he is bored bored bored.
