I wish I had a nickel for every time, just out of curiosity because I haven't
seen him for a while, I go looking for Ketzl. Whenever I think I've learned
all his hiding places, he manages to come up with another one.

My apartment has a balcony, but the construction of the parapet and railing
are such that he'd never fall off or jump, but a couple of times I went,
heart thumping, to the balcony to peer cautiously over, to see if there was a
gray cat smeared in the grass below. (That sounds morbid and maybe a little
bit dumb, but I'm very *very* confident that he will never fall from this
balcony.) I seem to remember him reappearing once on the balcony behind me
with a look that said, "Hey, what are you looking at down there?"

I'm in a one-bedroom apartment; I can imagine a cat in a whole house would
discover thousands of places to scrunch into.

I hope this is the case with Tabitha. I think they laugh at us as we pass
their hiding places over and over again looking for them. Can *almost* hear
him snickering now.

several times in the past when TuTu was missing, I finally found her
INSIDE my closet garment bads.  She had ripped the plastic on the side
open and crawled in.  I have had several ruined bags over the years.  Have
you looked in and behind drawers, etc?  MLB

I keep thinking its the basement. Will she come out for food?

Molly and Jake both have hiding places.  And we've lived in this house for
nearly forty years, since it was first built.

But sometimes it one is lost or stuck somewhere, the other will give up the
hideout while checking on them.

I can almost promise you that Sammy knows where Tabitha is.
