Both of our cats when they come in from outside immediately go the scratching post and scratch at it, as if they are wiping their feet after coming in. It's really cute. I was jut wondering if anyone else's cat(s) "wiped their feet" in a similar way?

The last three indoor/outdoor cats all lived toi be at least 16.
We tried to make the cats indoor only cats, but they had their own ideas.
@snytiger6 Life expectancy deals with averages, not your three cats. The cats I've helped rescue number in the thousands. Of those, a fair number were strays. Others were cats surrendered by people who allowed them outside. We turn them into indoor-only cats because of the clear dangers of allowing them outside. They accept it: new roof, new rules.
