    Mollie Rose just fell out of my window!!!

    OMG!!! My heart is racing right now. I was sitting here posting on PT. MooShoo was in his usual spot in the window.

    All of a sudden, I heard a commotion between some cats (thought it was MooShoo and Lexi). I looked over and MooShoo was struggling to gain his balance and the screen was pushed out!!!

    I NEVER ran down 3 flights of stairs in my whole life. I opened the outer door to the building and in comes Mollie Rose, my 13 year old tortie, strutting in the door with this "I meant to do that" look on her face!! I scooped her up, hugged her tightly and started to ball my eyes out!!

    What a close call that was! I checked her out from head-to-toe and she seems fine. I'm going to keep an eye on her for a while to make sure nothing is broken (although I'm sure VERY bruised). Then I'm going to go out and buy another kitty hammock (the first one finally gave out trying to accommodate TWO cats!) to put in the window and keep the damn window closed.

    Mollie Rose use up one of her nine lives today. Doesn't seem any worse for wear, that's for sure.

    The Divine Miss "M" lives on!!!

    OMG! I am sure glad she is ok. Came in with that Tortietude on her face, did she???

    What a scare - I hope YOU are ok!

    My sister's cat Froggy(Redpoint) did that years ago in Vancouver...and was hiding outdoors for DAYS. She finally saw where he had run, under a small shed, and parked herself there with a cigarette and a glass of wine to wait. She talked and called - and FINALLY he crept out. She grabbed him and ran to her apartment door, kicking at it and yelling for Mom (who was visiting) to let her in!

    Froggy paced around, ate, then threw up. "He's HOME"! was all my sister said.
    (She also paid great tribute to my mom, who was willing to go out in the evenings in Vancouver's East End calling out, "Froggy.....Froggy....." )

    OMG, what a shock that must have been!!! I'm VERY relieved to read that she's okay, and back inside!

    A couple of years ago, the same happened to a friend of mine, but that story had a sad ending. Even though she looked for her Bladie night and day, she never found her, and she never knew if she survived the fall.

    I'm glad that Mollie Rose is back!

    Oh poor girl! What is on the ground, cement or grass? I'm glad she seems OK, but you never know about the inside. Perhaps it's good idea to go and have her checked.

    Hope she'll be fine!

    3 stories!! I am so glad she was not seriously injured. I would probably at least call my vet to see what they suggest. I also would have been crying my eyes out too. Thank goodness everything is okay.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Oh my goodness!!

    I'm sure she's fine as cats are known to have awesome balance. She probably just thought of it as jumping off a table.

    Do one thing for me though.... squeeze all her front toes to make sure she didn't rip out her nails like Pouncer did when he fell off my second story balcony. If it wasn't for tearing his nail out, he would have been 100% fine. He just tried to catch himself beofre the fall. While you're at it, check Moo's nails since you sqaw him regaining his balance.

    Whew! Close call! But cats are like kids; they're made of rubber and cement. Prayers going up that she's not injured.
    Blessings,

    OMG I would've had a heart attack. I'm so happy to read everything is OK. Wow what a scare!

    kb2yjx,

    Don't worry, that's why I keep L'Oreal hair color around . I'm SURE a few have popped up after that fiasco.

    Catnapper,

    The first thing I did was give her a once over, including all four paws. She seems to be no worse for wear. I'm definitely going to keep an eye on her the next 48 hours just in case.

    Wow! Three stories! I'm happy to hear Molly Rose is OK after her tumble....but it seems as though you might have an amature Stunt Kitty on your hands. Maybe even a Super Kitty.

    *insert catchy theme music here*
    "Molly Rose the Wonder Cat
    She flies around like a fluffy bat.
    She seeks out trouble and dismay
    And swoops right in to save the day"

    *more theme music here*

    In this week's episode, we find Molly Rose the Wonder Cat in the Cat Cave with her faithful side-kick, Moo-Shoo. Suddenly...the screen which makes the Cat Cave invisible collapses (could this be the work of the Evil and Villanous Dr. Dogbreath?), revealing the secret hideout of our Cat Superheroes.

    "Holy mousetrap, Molly Rose!" yowls Moo-Shoo. "I think the Evil Dr. Dogbreath is onto our secret hideout location! If he finds out where we're our secret hideout is, he could destroy us....and that would be the end to peace and harmony for the Cat World. "

    "Never fear, Moo-shoo," meows Molly Rose the Wonder Cat. "I shall get to the bottom of this and put an end to the Evil Dr. Dogbreath once and for all."

    With that, Molly Rose the Wonder Cat swoops out the window of the Cat Cave, on her way to save the day.


    *Will Molly Rose the Wonder Cat defeat the Evil Dr. Dogbreath?
    *Will Moo-Shoo repair the screen that hides the Cat Cave in time--before it is discovered by the world?
    *Will the Cat World ever be safe again?

    Tune in next week to find out!

    And you'll hear Molly Rose the Wonder Cat say: "Meow-meow-meow. Meow-meow. Meow. Meow."
