Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / November 2004Phantom Kitty Update
I just don't know what to make of this. I posted earlier this week about Boone getting excited and thinking I heard a kitten crying. I've gone back several times at different times of the day and night and haven't found a thing. This afternoon Boone and I went back and he got tremendously excited and was prancing all around and I saw...nothing. I also couldn't hear anything. But he was acting so much like there was something there! I checked bushes, fence line, and everything. I haven't even seen any stray adults lately except for "Midnight" who I think actually lives in the building but is let out every once in a while. It is interesting to note that this afternoon was wet and foggy just like the night we heard the cry. The poor dog kept looking at me and looking at the fence like "don't you see it Mommy?" and I had to say no! Either he is losing it, I am losing it, or the Mothership is playing jokes...

I hope the story has a happy ending with Boone finding another little brother or sister for himself. :-) SignatureMargaret Fine mefine@mindspring.com > > I just don't know what to make of this.

For what it's worth, back years ago when I had the Phantom Kitty inside the house the poor thing sounded to be in distress, hurt, scared, or something of the sort. When I talked soothingly to the poor thing, the sounds changed to relaxed meows and eventually to purrs before fading out entirely. If you are able to hear the Phantom Cat, you might want to try talking softly to it and see if you can detect any changes in the sounds.

Did you look in trees, sheds, etc? >>I just don't know what to make of this. I posted earlier this week >>about Boone getting excited and thinking I heard a kitten crying.

I've [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > Margaret Fine > mefine@mindspring.com The fog will do weird things with sound. I know our burglary rate picks up when it's foggy. Not only does the fog conceal the crooks, but it sometmes muffles their glass breaking and other sounds as well as making them sound like they're coming from different directions. Beware of the fog! <g> Bob >>I just don't know what to make of this. I posted earlier this week >>about Boone getting excited and thinking I heard a kitten crying.

Add a fog horn when we're vacationing on Lake Superior and I get positively jumpy! :-) I hear they're doing a remake. I can't believe it will be as campy or creepy as the original. Margaret SignatureMargaret Fine mefine@mindspring.com > If you like a good ghost story did you ever see John Carpenter's The > Fog? To this day I get a little creeped out in the fog. I've never seen that, but I did read a great Stephen King story about a fog, although it was called "The Mist". It was a fog, though! :) Joyce > > If you like a good ghost story did you ever see John Carpenter's The > > Fog? To this day I get a little creeped out in the fog.

[quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > Bob That was one scary story! However, there was a film called 'The Fog' which was pretty creepy. Narrated by John Houseman who was telling the story to a bunch of kids on the beach, if I recall correctly. Jill > If you like a good ghost story did you ever see John Carpenter's The > Fog?

I did read Stephen King's The Fog back years ago. I loved it! I'll have to rent that movie. Bob > I just don't know what to make of this.
