We found yet another good use for the kitty stroller. Evacuating the
premisis! We had a strong thunder storm roll thru this afternoon and
our building was hit by lightening. I felt and smelled it! The
building's fire alarms started blaring for s few seconds, stopped for
about two minutes and started blaring again and I heard the fire
department pull up outside so we decided to evacuate. Oliver loves his
stroller so much he hopped right in and let me close him up with no
problems. He would not have been so cooperative if it was his carrier.
Unfortunatly it was raining buckets when we left the building so we
all got drenched. The firemen seemed impressed with Oliver's stroller.
They think the lightening strike fried the alarm system but there is no
active fire. Oliver was very calm about the whole thing and even came
out of the privacy compartment to look at the fire trucks and meowed
"hello" at the fire captain

So now we're up to 4 uses for the stroller:

It's so nice that they were so well behaived for you in an emergency.
I know I'd be hunting all over the place for mine, since they freaked
the other day when the landlord came in and testing the smoke
detector.

On a side note, my server cut off your message. I know I've had whole
messages disappear at times when I see replies to a post that was
dropped, but I think this is the first time I got part of a post. I
see the rest of the OP in replies, but all I received was what you see
above.
