All of them written in by kids. :) Some of those should be added to a FAQ for when pets go missing. lol SignatureCheryl circa Fri, 18 Jun 2004 20:02:13 -0500, in rec.pets.cats.health+behav, Cheryl (jlhshadow@nospamhotmail.com) said, > Did you see some of the stories about pets that went missing and > where they were found?

Rebecca, 12, Southampton" Nearly laughing out loud? My, but she's a brazen one. ;-) And what is it with all these free-range hamsters? Don't they have Habitrails in the UK?

SignatureCheryl How long does it take to check a drier, refrigerator, open closet, dishwasher ,etc. to see if your kitty/cat jumped in? For Lord's sake..if you have one or more cats in the house isn't it automatic to make sure no cats are around if you open the front door? open the drier and turn to transfer the wet clothes to the drier? etc. isn't it automatic to make sure no cats are around if > you open the front door? open the drier and turn to transfer the wet clothes to > the drier? etc. I suppose if they hadn't realized the cat was even in the room they might not have looked - a mistake I'm sure they won't make again. A friend of mine lost her son when they came home from grocery shopping. They searched the house, the yard, the neighborhood - couldn't find him. Here he had crawled into the clothes dryer and was sitting in there watching them look for him. W Yup.. we had one of those come into the clinic a few months back. happens all too often. > <PA voice> > This is a public service announcement: please check your appliances [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > http://www.ipwebdesign.net/wildAtHeart > http://www.ipwebdesign.net/kaelisSpace > This is a public service announcement: please check your appliances > before turning them on if you have pets small enough to fit in them. ;) [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > Cute kitty pic, too. *g* I was doing laundry the other day and left the laundry room with the clothes, and didn't kick the door shut on the dryer. I went back in a little later, like 5 minutes, and Tucker was all curled up in there. Cute as a button, deadly as hell! I scolded him, but it was my booboo, of course. I just don't want him to ever climb in the nice warm dryer again! -Hails >> This is a public service announcement: please check your appliances >> before turning them on if you have pets small enough to fit in them.

All you have to do is close the door and turn it on for a second, then quickly open the door. :-) SignatureIt's appalling that people want pizza delivery and don't respect the service. http://www.tipthepizzaguy.com > <PA voice> > This is a public service announcement: please check your appliances [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Cute kitty pic, too. *g* Glad to see the cat was okay and fluffy!
