Oh goodness...I didn't mean to cause such drama, I was just trying out a new nap spot! Honest!!
It all began this morning. My uncle came over to replace mom's garbage disposal. He was here for a while and noticed that I never showed up to assist him. Now I will admit, this is highly unlike me. I am, after all, the sweetest cat on the planet according to my mom, and a socialite as well. I always go to greet everybody who walks in the house. If I'm not around, all one needs to do is pick up one of my rattlely-shakie-mice things, give it a shake and I always come running cuz I love my mousies! Well, my uncle tried the mousie thing and I still didn't show up. He looked high and low all over the house for me and couldn't find me! Finally, he called mom at work.
In a word, mommy flipped. She thought surely I had somehow escaped the house when she left for work early this morning. She flew home from work at about 85 mph. When she got here, she searched the house herself, did the mousie shake, and couldn't find me. Then she went into overdrive-flip cuz it would be so dangerous for me to be outside. I've never been outside, it was 93 degrees today and we live on a busy road. Mom, dad and my uncle looked for me outside for three hours! Then mom came in and made a flyer to take to the neighbors. She was ready to go take it to make copies when she decided to look in the basement one more time. When she turned the flashlight toward the storage area under the stairs, I decided to come out of hiding and santered right on out.
Mom hasn't stopped hugging and kissing me yet, so I don't think I'm in any trouble. She did say, however, that all her neighbors now likely think she is over-the-rainbow-crazy cuz she was out in the heat, walking around shaking one of my mice, crying, and yelling "TOOTER!!" TINA-TOOTER!!"
Yours Truly,
