Tuffty seems to think my stress levels are too low and need
raising.........he keeps going missing. On Sunday he was
supervising DH and I clearing out the greenhouse and tidying up
the
flowerbeds (and generally getting in our way). Monday morning no
sign of him, this about the 6th time this year he's gone missing.
Tuesday morning no Tuffty. Wednesday morning no Tuffty, this is
about the time my brain starts going from worried to panic mode.
The neighbours must think I'm mad as they see me furtively
looking
in their gardens as I walk the streets clicking my tongue (it's a
sound I've trained them, the cats not the neighbours, to respond
to). At lunchtime I went into the garden to hang some washing out
to dry and who should appear......yep....Tuffty, and a right old
telling off he gave me....."where's my food, can't you see I'm
starving, if you don't feed me NOW I'll waste away to
nothing"....so like the obedient servant that I am I stop what
I'm
doing and find something suitable for the taste buds of a
discerning cat. Between mouthfuls of food Tuffty continues to
tell
me what a lazy, ungrateful human being I am....no mention of
where
*HE* has been for the last 2 1/2 days.

So pleased to hear all ended well and Tuffty made his way back
home
or was he hiding somewhere close by watching you and thinking I
will
teach her, she can't ignore me and get away with it!!!!!! Consider
yourself chastised.

Lois

I very strongly suspect he gets himself shut in a neighbours
shed/garage, but it's strange that he's always missing for roughly
the
same days.

H'e still telling me off today even though I've given his tummy a
good
tickling and some Tuna. :-)

Tuffy is probably in the Motherships equivalent of the National
Guards. He is
on a very strict schedule, must fulfill his patriotic duties to the
mothership
and the higher order of the feline population. ;-)

Randy

Ahhh! Stupid hoomin that I am, I never thought of that. ;-)

I think I've been forgiven for my sins (whatever they may be), there
was a freshly killed, un-nibbled mousie in the cathouse this
afternoon......just what I wanted for my dinner.
