Patches, the chubby cat, got stuck in the tent !! it was very scary! I heard this terrible noise, I really thought 2 of the cats were fighting, but instead I found Patches, with this (pic below) stuck around his middle! he was so scared:(
I picked the whole thing up and with the small hole facing toward the ceiling, I shook it til gravity did its thing(his head was facing out of the small hole facing the ceiling) and he was free! he was breathing so hard, he panicked of course. then I held him and petted him til he calmed down. it scared the wits out of me to go in the room and see him thrashing around like that:( :(
thank God this happend while I was home, I hate to think it could have happend while I was gone! anyway, I'm not keeping the thing, I'm giving it away.

Mary,
Thank goodness you were home! It is so scary for kitties, they just can't figure out what is going on, and the panic grows. I, too, would have to get rid of it. It is the same with plastic bags, shopping bags with handles...kitties just get into too much trouble with these things.
Glad Patches is ok....

Mary, I would not give away the tent. I would cut the back side to look like the front side, or make the hole bigger.
It is scary, that's why my house is cat proof now :) And those evil plastic bags - as soon as one comes into the house, it is put in the big special closed bag, where all the bags are.
