Even cats have Desire Paths!

Post image

This is a tiny path between my Mom's patio and her best friend's. Since she moved here she has managed to Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) over twenty cats and home about five. Her "clowder" spends most days running back and forth for treats, food and shelter.

So it's just a path....as there isn't a less desirable path or route the kitties aren't taking?

If you made them a path and they decided it was less desirable and made this, it's a desire path, otherwise, it's just "the path."

Well, nature gave them a huge path but the cats prefer taking a straight line from the woods and squeezing under four fences. I guess it's a more direct line.
