Very good news, indeed! But if you ever need to take a cat on a restrained
walk, try a harness. They get away so easily with an ordinary collar and leash. |

Has he been hiding in the basement for a week, and the sightings are of another gray cat? Is there an opening to the basement that I don't know about and he does? Did he get in and out of a window, although there's nothing that would be open at ground level? I've closed the door to the basement tightly and will inspect closely later. I havent WHERE THE H*LL WAS HE? OK, Mothership. You've got somebody up there with a sick sense of humor. My intuition is that he was outside and just got in, as he is extremely excited and still running around. He just started eating, and Mr. Clark sniffed him approvingly. While he's skittish about being touched by more than a fingertip, he seems clean -- if he was outside, he took good care of himself. Maybe the basement outside door wasn't tightly shut and he got in -- I will check later. Anyway, he's loudly running around my office, jumping on and off things, letting his nose be touched, and making loud RROWS.
