I ' m holding up under tremendous pressure : the cats really , really , really want to go out . So they meow , and jump on the keyboard , and glare at me ( only Jenny -- Simon just looks reproachful ) . I understand that they love lolling in the sunshine and especially on sun - warmed concrete of the patio . I understand the thrill of chasing chipmunks and moths down the landscaping logs .

Question: Why do the cats want to go out to the sunny patio so badly ?
Answer: They have been outside while I work and want to enjoy the sun more .None of the above choices .They have been cooped up all day while I work and want to enjoy the sun .They do n't like being outdoors all the time and want to lay inside .
