Hand operated cat elevator loved by the cat

These are not that uncommon particularly, it seems, in continental Europe. Perhaps more common in Eastern Europe. I am unsure. But I have seen a lot of these. It is a very simple solution to letting you cat go outside when living on the 3rd floor!

I guess he could have put a cat flap in the front door of his apartment but I am sure there is a front door to the apartment block which makes a cat flap unworkable. There is some risk. What if the cat is spooked by a sudden noise on the ground and jumps out of the bag halfway up the building and lands awkwardly? Just a thought.

Nice to see the cat enjoy it. He asks for the elevator all the time apparently. Proof that full-time (FT) indoor cats are bored and don't like it. I am not saying that letting a cat outside unsupervised is great either. See where I'm going? FT inside is not optimal and neither is indoor/outside unsupervised.

Cat domestication is no longer optimal. Double tap the video to see it full screen!
