Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / September 2005Escaped!!!
Most of you know about Miss Priss, the (front declawed) tortie that we have had for a guest since last Thursday. Last night, she darted out the door when DH was bringing Max the d-thing in from his walk, but she came back in a few minutes and was under one of our cars. She did it again this morning. Grrrrrrrrr Ran into the woods behind our neighbor's house. Will keep looking for her and post when/if we find her. Maybe she just wants to go home.....

[quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Maybe she just wants to go home..... Oh dear! I hope you find her! I was going out to take Max the D-thing on a walk (not just a poo-pee run in the yard, but an actual walk at a nearby "linear" park - we usually go just over 2.5 miles), and sitting in the sun right outside the garage door was Miss Priss. I tied Max up on a tether, walked to the Jeep (parked outside the garage - our garage is detached and used more for the storage of yard/garden equipment & power tools), called to her and she came to me - I gave her skritchies on the head, then grabbed her scruff, scooped her up and brought her back inside. I set her down just inside the (enclosed) back porch, and she sauntered off, thail high as if she owned the house! Got news for her - *Lizzie* owns the house! Told DH that he will *have* to be more careful when entering exiting the house - not "holding" the doors open wide as he so often does with little regard to what creature might run in/out. > Most of you know about Miss Priss, the (front declawed) tortie that > we have had for a guest since last Thursday.

Maybe she is used to a free access, in-and-out lifestyle. Glad she's back. I love the name Miss Priss. She's such a pretty cat.

I'm so glad she's back! I agree not to let a front declawed cat in/out. And she's so incredibly pretty.

We always jingled keys at cat level when entering the door. That spooked off any that were hopeful. Ours actually were indoor/outdoor, but not free access and we didn't want them out all the time. The big thing is you aren't used to "cats at the door hoping to go out". So just begin to think of that last thing when leaving and first thing when entering. YOu may even have to put her in another room for a while when you leave. She'll learn. Or maybe train her to leash so she can go on walks with the D thing. I'm so relieved to hear she's back.

I'm several days behind, so saw this before sending off purrs that she'd come back. I'm glad she's back with you Which remninds me, I haven't posted any Spotty updates in awhile. What this has to do with Miss Priss wanting (and sneakking) out is that Spotty still shows no real interest in going out. I've been pretty busy lately, so haven't taken Sammy and Little Bit out as often as they'd like. When I get everyone dressed for an excursion into the OUT, well I put on their collars, and Sammy gets her leash on since she likes to roam further than I like her to, Spotty still just sits in the open door and refuses to come out. She always greets me at the door and looks out, but, so far at least, doesn't want to go out.
