Boyfriend's terrible ordeal
I was woken up, not particularly early as I had the day off work, by very
loud and persistent meowing. It sounded quite like what I call "the prey miaow." Those of you who have hunting kitties will know what I mean. I shot out of bed to avoid my kitchen being turned into a room that looks like a pillow fight has taken place in it i.e. feathers everywhere. That's what I was expecting to see. Nothing. KFC stretched and flexed her toes in her good morning gesture; it wasn't her, then. At first I couldn't locate where the noise was coming from - bear in mind I had just woken up from a deep sleep nanoseconds ago. So where was Boyfie? Poor Boyfie had been accidentally shut in the porch overnight. It's a small porch only about three feet wide/5 feet long and has a double door with windows near the ground. I keep my cat food in there. Just recently BF has been accompanying me to the porch to supervise me getting his pouches of Whiskas at mealtimes. The problem is that he often gets distracted by looking outside at the street (not that anything happens there, lol, one car in half an hour would be rush-hour) and doesn't want to come back inside straight away like I do. I used to wait for him, holding the front door ready to close it. I would say "Boyfs, come in now, I want to close the door" Mostly he would come straight in then. *However* just recently he has said "no, wait, I'm looking at something." I would then leave the front door open so he could come back inside at his leisure, which he usually does within a few minutes, then I close the door. I was very busy doing various things last night and I only noticed the front door was open when I went to go upstairs to bed. So I closed it, of course. The poor lad must have been in there looking out at the nighttime street..like kitty TV. He had neither wee'd nor pooed in there. He shot outside like a bullet from a gun when I let him free and when he came back inside he couldn't stop talking and telling me about it. He hadn't made a peep of noise all night. He must have just sat there hoping I would soon get up. Normally I am up before 7 to go to work but if I have a day off I always take the opportunity to sleep in for a couple of hours extra. I so love this cat. I think he is amazing. He was shut in the porch all night and he didn't wake me up until 9. Tweed |

Boyfriend's terrible ordeal
aw, poor Boyfie. But seeing what he did, waiting patiently so you could let
him in and not doing his business on the porch, why then he deserves double lovings. Please give him plenty from us.

Please give him plenty from us. Lily & her mama I will. I can't do it right now as it's 10.30 pm here and he is out looking for rats. Very few now since the terrier men came last time. He will get a lot of scritches soon and I'll tell him some were from you. Tweed Tweed |

I wasn't planning to - it was an accident. He is quite happy now he is back inside the house. I'm not going to make him into a drama queen by fussing all around him if something like this happens. Okay - he got shut in the porch. It is *so* his own fault for keeping on in there after bedtime. Yes, he knows when bedtime is and where he ought to be at that time. Which is NOT in the porch.

Tweed Being locked on a porch is not so bad -- one time I inadvertently locked Princess (RB 16) out on the enclosed patio and it was a winter night. How she got past me to go out, I'll never know. The next morning, when I discovered her, she spent hours "telling me" about her ordeal. Well, it was her fault for sneaking past me. Best wishes. MLB |
