She completely freaked me out... My neighbour is away so has had some people from her work staying at her place keeping the cat company, but they couldn't stay the whole time my neighbour's away so I've been watching her since.
I didn't get to go to her place until 2 days after the others had left because I was super busy, but she has an automatic litter box, automatic feeder, and a big water dispenser so I knew she'd be ok in the meantime.
Well I finally got to go over and couldn't find the kitty anywhere! I searched the townhouse high and low and was beginning to freak out. I went back downstairs and the kitty Cleo was sitting on the back patio area outside!!
I was so mad - at the other people for not making sure she was inside when they left (she gets supervised visits outside), and at myself for not checking on her the day before.
Then last night we had friends over and they left, and I ran back out after them because she'd left her bag behind, and saw Cleo outside again!!!!
I grabbed Cleo, put her back inside, and got DH and made him go investigate with me. The little stinker had knocked a screen out of the window upstairs, then she jumps onto the storage shed which is near the window, then from there onto the patio railing, then onto the ground!!!!
She's a big girl, and frankly I'm impressed that she can do that... I also feel bad for blaming the other people for letting her out, but I feel less guilty about missing one day of seeing her - she was out on the town making her own fun
I'm soooooo glad she's ok though, and we figured out how she was escaping - it was such a mystery! She's quite the sneaky kitty!
