Our cats are part time outdoor cats, especially Harry. Harry is never outside for more than a couple of hours and we call him our little old man because he is always in his bed, fast asleep everynight no later than 9.30pm. Vinnie and Lola are normally in by 11pm at the latest and then we do 'lock down' which is when we lock the cat flap and then they go out again in the morning.
Tonight we got worried, as Harry wasn't in and we had not seen (or heard) him in a few hours - very unlike Harry. So at 10.30 we hunted the house down, we looked everywhere for him...but no Harry
We walked all around where we live, checked neighbours gardens and looked everywhere. We came home, checked the house again... and no Harry
so we went out again for another walk around.
When we came home again and still no Harry anywhere (this is now 1.20am) we decided to go out for a drive to see if we could see him... as I pick up the car keys... who walks in the room... Harry
the only thing is he didn't come in from outside... so he has obviously found a hiding place that neither of us know of!
I am so glad that he is ok... but I have just spent the last hours beside myself with worry. At least my little old man is home safe and sound!!!
