3 am disaster
There is this gap between the window and the air conditioner in my
bedroom and GUESS WHO JUMPED OUT THE WINDOW ONTO THE ROOF @ 3AM THIS MORNING? Nicky!!!!!!!! Right out the window. I was hysterical. yelling and screaming and the little bugger would not come back in and i could not get the other window open for him to come back in and my husband was in the yard trying to talk him back through the gap. It was a DISASTER!!!! I am totally surprised the police were not here and i swear that it sounded like was being KILLED or something. lesson: if you think that the cat will not try to get through the gap, YOU ARE WRONG and that he has probably being doing it for a while, you just have not noticed. |

Last year Dunzi got through a gap in the window that was only about 6-7 inches high. We had scaffolding outside at the time and she got stuck half way down and then had to make an amazing jump (which she nearly didn't make and if she hadn't she'd have landed on concrete 50 feet below) through another window to get back in Afterwards I needed a beer to calm my nerves at 8.30 in the morning!!! And I'm sure I've got a few extra gray hairs as a result of it Lesley Slave of the Fabulous Furballs |

I discovered the hard way that the gap allowed by a "security" chain on my front door was not narrow enough to keep the cats in! I didn't see her get out, but when Melisande didn't appear when I dished up their evening meal, I remembered an importunate magazine salesman I'd had trouble getting rid of earlier. I spent that night worrying, and occasionally going outside to call her (softly, it was after midnight). Come next morning, I found her on the stairs (outdoor) leading to the apartment above mine. It was winter, and although people think of Arizona as "hot", that's only in summer - she'd been outside in below freezing temperatures, all night long! (But she's still always right there, trying to escape, whenever I open the door - once a cat has been accustonmed to going outdoors at will, they don't forget or lose the desire.) |
