Camper and the box

Our cat Camper wanted outside on a very nice day not too long ago.
I snapped her outside rope to her halter and connected the outside rope to a wooden box we use as a side table outside.

I had just stepped inside when all hell broke loose!
Almost instantly, Camper spotted a squirrel on the ground only a few feet away. She took off in a hard run in the direction of the squirrel, which knocked the wooden box over.
This made a loud BANG! which scared Camper and she ran even harder from the loud noise, squirrel was instantly forgotten.
Camper was now running so hard she was dragging the box. This made a vary loud racket as well. When Camper turned to check out that noise she saw the box following her.
She panicked and took off across the grass with everything she had, and the box continued to follow!
Rand was also in pursuit at this time and he was just adding to Camper's panic!
Camper finally rounded a corner and stopped. To her delight nobody followed. Rand gently eased around the corner and was able to capture her. He unhooked from her pursuer and brought her back inside.
The only noise left was the bark of a very angry squirrel who continued to bark for several minutes following all this.

One very embarrassed cat
who won't go outside now.
