Help! Fearful behaviour in Cats

[Catherine]

Quote:I have a sneaking suspicion one of the Italian Greyhounds who lives in an "Italian Greyhound Pack" on the adjacent land, may have possibly come near her door, or even poked his head through.
I think I know who it is too. His name is Jon, short for Jonquil, and he has a crush on me. He has come through onto Sally's land three or four times looking for me in the past.
Maybe he is the culprit. He is just too big to get through her door, but he could get his head through.

That would make sense. The dog could get his head in the door, but nothing else. A cat of course would not like this and would not forget it even if it happened only once.

Maybe the cat is scared to be in her room unless you are there. I wonder if she doesn't realize that the dog can't get in. If you are there you will protect her. Without you the dog might somehow get her.

She is a scardy cat. The greenhouse might at least give her a dry option so she is not sitting out in the rain.
