It is Halloween, and trick or treat started late tonight. I was beginning to think I would not have any trick or treaters. A local church did "Trunk or Treat" http://www.trunkortreat.us/what.html on Wednesday night. Also, Friday night football probably is taking precedence over trick or treat. The local news said to expect trick or treat to start about 10 PM, after the Friday night football games were done! (I will probably close my door and shut my light off before 10 PM. I shut down when the trick or treaters are older people and not young kids.)
I opened the front door, kept the storm door locked, and put the front light on. I put a chair near the front door so I could keep the bag of candy nearby. Sake wants to be isolated in the garage lately, so that is where she is tonight. Taki wanted to be in the computer room, as did Haiku. Taki was content to lie there. Haiku wanted something, but not to be held and they have multiple food choices available.
So, anyway, it was well after dark when the first trick or treaters knocked on my door. Taki hid. Haiku wanted to check this out. In fact, she checked out the first couple of groups at the door. I would step outside, and shut her in (I don't think she would escape, because she rarely does, but she does.)
So, after a bit, I put her in the cat stroller, and left the door open. She likes the cat stroller, and is in and out of it a lot. For tonight, it gives her a perfect view of the door and our visitors, but keeps her away from the door, so I do not have to worry about escape as much.
This seems to be the status quo tonight for trick or treat and kitties.
