Compartments and fire.

We just had a fire alarm in our building and there was no trouble
getting Diana and Ryan into their travel cases, but Cinnamon was
running everywhere. He's always been such a panicy kitty and the bell
ringing makes him really scared. Just as Fred was leaving him behind
and going out the compartment door, the bells stopped and we all came
back in. It was nothing threatening, but a gudgud exercise. We can't
think of aenny way to get a panicky kitty into a cage in short order.
Maybe somehow establish it as a place of refuge. Sum day there might be
a real fire and we'd need to get hisownself out or ... well that could
be too hard to imagine, but we can't risk Ryan and Myownself just
because Cinnamon won't get into his travel carrier.

Oh, that must have been a panicy time for all. When they get frightened,
there is just no catching them, Piglet is like that.

Glad it wasn't more serious and can imagine how you woould feel at haveing
to leave any one of them behind.

We would have that problem too. Ranger, Harri, and I are easy to pick up
and put in our carriers but Cleo, Tabitha, and Sammy are very flighty. In
case of an emergency it would be very hard for our hoomins to get those 3
crated up.

I've thought of this since I think I'd have trouble getting them into
carriers under the best of circumstances, so I have some extra pillow
cases that I can grab and stuff them it. Might not be the most
comfortable solution for the kitties, but it would have a higher rate of
success. Booker I'd just toss out the door, knowing that we can retrieve
him easily. Snowflake and Chappy I'd want in the pillowcases.
