Tunnel Project
Phase 1 - Get supply

You'll see, Goro.
Phase 2 - Build interface

Phase 3 - Install
And here it is - tunnel to Goro & Niko's enclosure
Phase 4 - Let them use it
You push the door to go outside, Goro.
Adventurous Goro started going out
through the kitty door & tunnel soon.
But still needs assistance to come back inside.
As expected, cautious Niko is hesitant to use the tunnel.
Phase 5 - Convince Niko that it's not scary
Niko stuck out his head through the door, which
is the most progress he has made so far.
It's okay - we use regular door until he feels comfortable.
Tunnel project will be complete
once both Goro & Niko enjoy using it.
After that...we just enjoy ourselves :-)
What an awesome tunnel!!!!! Christmas come early at your place!!

I think you are both very cute, and your human friends built you a very fun place. :)
ReplyDeleteGoro and Niko, we LOVE your tunnel project, and your outdoor enclosure! Niko, don't worry, it is safe and FUN to use the tunnel. Our Angel Graphite had one of those magnetic cat doors, and he enjoyed using it very much. :)
ReplyDeleteWe just love that outside shelter. The tunnel looks like fun! Purrs...from your friends at Colehauscats.com
ReplyDeleteDearest Tamago,
ReplyDeleteIt will not take long before they figured out how that door functions! It is so much fun to watch them and they all use the cat door different. But if there is a dog in our garden, I hear them fly through that cat door... Wonder how! Your photos are always super. Pieter just watched them too.
Hugs to you, and my back is now back to 100% health. Just a nasty muscle cold I guess.
Mariette
What a great project!
ReplyDeleteHappy bird watching to Goro and Niko.
xxoo

ReplyDeleteWowza, Boys! What a dealio you got there. That is one cool tunnel....but Niko? I'm with you, Bro. You gotta be SURE something isn't going to eat you up before you use it. Take your time!
ReplyDeleteI don't know why I so often lack something clever to say because your posts are always so clever and adorable.. this one i just love.
ReplyDeleteOh theese one is a good one! How fantastic is that...a tunnel to your outdoor enclosure! You boys have such wonderful pawrents. Goro, so glad you are enjoying your new tunnel and Niko, take your time little buddy it's ok. Have a great week kitties!
ReplyDeleteThat's so cool! We hope Niko works up the confidence to use the cat flap soon. :)
ReplyDeleteOh my Tamago,
ReplyDeletewhen I saw the first photo I thought Goro is going to chose which fish of the aqaurium will be the next toy. :-)
But no, a new tunnel was the subject of desire. Its always fun for them to decelope something new. And you are so great in giving them words to express their feelings. "That thing ate Goro" made me giggling. If I ever get reborn, I want to be one of your cats.
Best greetings, Johanna
What a cool tunnel!
ReplyDeleteNubbin wiggles,
Oskar

ReplyDeleteDearest Tamago-san,
ReplyDeleteI loved to read your friend used the word "Pawsome tunnel"♡♡♡ The tunnel sure make kill their time, doesn't it♬♬♬
本当に楽しそうなゴロ・ニコちゃん達♬♬♬ やはりニコちゃんは少し奥手(これ正しいかな？）な方ですね。二人とも新しい冒険が出来て良かった (^_^)彡☆
やっと少し、忙しさも一段落です(^^;)
Sending you lots of love and hugs from Japan, xoxo Miyako*
Wow, that is so terrific. You have a catio. Niko, you will bet brave soon. Goro, so nice of you to try to help Niko through the cat door. Great pictures. You all have a great day.
ReplyDeleteThis is fantastic!Some cats need to be coaxed through openings and swinging doors. Try taping the door open until Niko feels safe to go through back and forth a few times. You can try a wand toy to coax him in and out until he gets the hang of it.
ReplyDeletewe has some awards for you! :)
ReplyDeleteWow, what a cool personal porch! Lucky kitties!
ReplyDeleteWow, I never even knew you guys had an outdoor enclosure!!! Now with the kitty door for easy access it's perfect :-) Enjoy!!!
ReplyDeleteHi Goro and Niko,
ReplyDeleteWe're back to let you know we gave you an award. Come to our blog and see, okay?
Hugs!
You boys are so lucky! Your mom and dad are awesome to build that cool tunnel so you can enjoy your enclosure when you want. We're sorry it ate Goro, though.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great tunnel to the outside space. We know you will love the freedom to go in and out it gives you.
ReplyDeleteLuv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
WOW!!!!! That is soooo awesome! We're featuring your post on our facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/KatzTales at lunchtime today.
ReplyDeleteYour outdoor enclosure looks pretty good. Our departed guardian cat Diamond also had a nice outdoor enclosure, where we live in the Pond.
ReplyDeleteDawn (Shubunkin)
Concats on the deserved awardies. You cute boys are having a nice Christmas, nice tunnel. Niko, you'll soon be adventurous and go in the tunnel.
