Just have to share this story. Our cat (4) Spud went out on Saturday morning about 11:00. As the day and night went on there was no sign of him. We weren't too bothered as he has gone out for hours before especially in hot weather. But when it came to Sunday morning and we hadn't seen him for 24 hours we got panicky. We went out and searched in all his haunts. No luck. So the whole Sunday came and went too with no sign. Then this morning about 8:30 he comes flying through the cat flap. Checked him over and he seemed fine. He was ravenous though and one packet of cat food wasn't enough. So later on I ventured to the shops across the street only to be met by the woman who owns the launderette opposite us. She informed us that when she opened up this morning Spud came flying out the door. He had been locked in there all weekend. He goes in to see her now and again, had gone in on Saturday morning. She had closed early totally unaware he was there and he had been in there for almost 48 hours! He made a bed out of some blankets, drunk her cold tea from her mug and shredded her kitchen roll to pieces. I dread to think what would have happened had she gone on holiday for a week as she runs the place herself!! Don't you just love happy endings!

Absolutely. One of ours managed to get himself lost for 3 weeks - we were besides ourselves - posters, roaming the streets calling him (remember to choose non-embarrassing names for your cat just in case)...leafspring said:

Mr Jasper relaxing in the garden.
We have had him for 4.5 years and he is very content indeed. he has a selection of adjoining gardens which he has taken as his territory. he pops up to the other garden to check out the chickens almost every day. he frequently brings mice in for us. A big tough guy when out and about, but a huge softie when in the house.

Surely a quick look at the rear end will tell them what cats have been done?
I agree, but the deed had been done when we got him, so his chiseled good looks are ruined forever. My missus says she'll have corrective surgery done on his lugs when we win the Euro lotto. Thats assuming there is any loose change left after I have filled my warehouse with cars. 
Here is another one of him impersonating a pig.
k me that's no cat - it's something HP Lovecraft had rejected for being too scary!!!Gassing Station | All Creatures Great & Small | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
