A little while ago I wondered where Baggy had got to, he was very quiet and
I couldn't see him anywhere. I got up and searched the house and still
didn't see him. I went back to the room I started in, and there he was,
sitting in my chair looking smug.

Phew.
Must be the day for it. I couldn't find Kitty Farmcat when I got home from
work. Called her, searched the house, upstairs and down, went to see if she
was sunbathing on the patio. No. Down the garden, looking all round the
chicken huts, in the orchard, calling her all the time. Nothing. This is
very ununusual now as she hardly goes out.
I walked back up the garden worrying. "If she's not home by 7 I'll have to
start looking in the undergrowth for her body.." You know how it is.

Got back up to the house, entered the conversatory to go in the back door,
happened to look up and there was KFC meatloafing on top of the freezer.
"Uh, what? I was here all the time!"

P.S. I got scared because she's so old, in case she'd decided to *go away
and die* or something.
Silly.

It's amazing how quickly we panic isn't it?

That part scares me too. I'm glad she was just right there waiting
for you to see her. :)

Me too! There is no reason to believe that she is ill, everything seems to
be working fine, what goes in one end comes out the other, she toilets
outside mostly, has a good appetite. In fine fettle for a cat approaching
21. She does need help with grooming now.
It was a rather neurotic response of mine to not finding her straight away
because she is a creature of habit these days. She likes to stay in and be
comfortable now although she will sunbathe occasionally just outside the
back door if it's quite sunny and hot like it was today.
She sat outside today for about two hours taking in the rays, just communing
with the mothership ;-)

Roxy and Licky both seem to enjoy this. I'll be looking all over the
house, calling for the cat in question, and finally, I'll spot whoever
it is, meatloafing on the fridge or curled up behind the guitar case,
enjoying the show and quietly snickering at me.

Smudge never does this because she is such a social kitty that she
would come if she heard me calling her like that. That is, unless she
decides to get lost for real! :-/

He usually hides remotes by knocking them under furniture. :-)

When Sammy was younger she took this game a step further. Back then
she was an escape artist who manged to slip out when I opened the door
three times a week. Ever try to find a mostly black black and white
tuxedo kitty in the dark when they're hiding in the bushes? If you
have you know that about the only way to find them is to go get a
flashlight and catch a reflection from their eyes as they sit there
laughing their little furry butts off laughing at the silly blind
hoomin. Anyway, after a while I caught on that Sammy was waiting for
me to go get the flashlitgh out of the truck, then snaeking back
inside and watching said silly hoomin through the bedroom window.
