Not all cats are great hunters. Some of them try their best and mean well, but they’re just not cut out for life outdoors. Such is Apollo, who routinely goes up to the dogs in an attempt to snuggle them. This never works out well for him, as all the dogs are old and don’t especially like being snuggled. If I let Apollo out into the world, he’d get himself killed trying to make a friend of a neighborhood dog (or, knowing him, a possum) and I’d never forgive myself.
So, getting him set up for life indoors. At least his sisters have proven more survival-oriented than him.
