My gosh! Barrie had an exciting day !
It was a completely new event for him, but worth a try. Next time he will recall it's happened before and nothing very horrible occured.
It might be a case of getting used to it in small doses at first.
Haha....maybe it's similar to taking a cat for a walk? I tried taking Sally cat for a walk and you would think a nuclear war was about to start! But in a much less structured way (i.e. the way a cat wants to do it, and not the way I want to do it) -she will happily follow me around, and through the adjoining field before she starts howling. Then when we get back, she flops down as if she's been in the Death Zone on Everest, and meows for extra food. One eighth of a mile walk completed!
I wonder if Barrie would like it better in your garden? He might like the grass there and the plants, and the fact that it's quieter? So long as any plants there are safe for him to be near.
