Awww poor Cassy. Taz feels your pain. The other night I got home and Bruce said he would have fed Taz but he couldn't find him. WHAT!?!? I went into panic mode. But he wanted me to fix the salad for dinner. So while I rushed through that I thought of the places to look for him. But Bruce already began looking and found him shut in the coat closet. He said it'd been about 5 hours since he'd got his coat out to run errands earlier.
Taz must have been comfy in there because neither of us heard him meow or anything while we were calling out his name. He probably thought - ahhhhh, a break from the rest of the furry critters.
That is not the first time he's been shut up somewhere. He's been out in the garage almost all night and in the spare bedroom all night too. Not to mention his little escapade under the house for a few hours.
So you're not an evil meowmy at all. Cassy is just wanted a little excitement for the day.
