"lost" kitten purrs please?
Little "Jaylo" the kitten is nowhere to be seen. Her meowmie
called me a short while ago in a panic because she couldn't find the kitten and was terrified that kitty had gotten into the washing machine when she filled it earlier. I rushed down and unpacked the machine - no kitty (thank Bast!) but after an hour of searching neither of us can find the kitten. She has to be *somewhere* in the house - but it's an old house, with hundreds of hiding places for small kittens that grown women couldn't search. I've managed to calm my friend down and persuaded her to sit down calmly with a cup of tea - maybe when there aren't two big humans tromping about yelling "here kitty!" she'll come out of her hiding place. -- Jette Goldie Apache and Dakota http://www.jette.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/kitties.html |

Glad Jaylo was found!! Kittens can get in the smallest places.
I lost a fosterkitty once and it waas awful. I noticed that the screen was torn, and had conjured up this horrible scenario that a neighborhood tom cat had gotten her. (I had just watched "A Cry in the Dark" and was suffering from dingo-got-my-baby overactive imagination I guess). I looked everywhere, even outside, and had gotten to the point I was really looking for a body, not a live kitty. Marilyn was curled up asleep under a bookcase the whole time. Sherry |

Poor Linda was so worried - she had quite convinced herself that the kitten was IN the washing machine, which had gone through half a cycle by that time. My main job was to open the machine and reassure her there was no small limp wet kitten body among her son's jeans. Which thankfully there was not! (dunno quite how *I* would have coped with that scenario either!) -- Jette Goldie Apache and Dakota http://www.jette.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/kitties.html |

(dunno quite how *I* would have coped with that scenario either!) What a terrible thought! Unfortunately, it sounds all too possible. I've heard terrible stories about kittens and dryers, too. At least refrigerators are relatively safe, if you snack a lot. |

The Magnificant Madeleine once managed to crawl through a tiny hole in the webbing underneath the sofa, and go to sleep inside it. I didn't find her until she woke up and started to yowl because she'd forgotten where she was. Ade and I had to turn the sofa over very carefully to make sure she didn't get squished, then cut the webbing open even further so that I could get my arm in and rescue her. And last year, Fred was nowhere to be seen in the garage, although I could hear her yelling at me. It was several minutes before I thought of looking UP. There she was, ten feet in the air in the rafters, damn kitten, politely asking me to get her down again because she was bored. I never have this trouble with boy kittens, I must say. |
