I'm such a bad meowmie!!!

I think if you have more than 2 cats, you need to take inventory when you leave and come back. I've learned my lesson.

I have to do it with just one! There is a navy blue blanket on my bed that Cassie likes to rest on during the day ... I didn't realize how hard it is to see a grey cat on a navy blanket in low light? I'm looking under the love seat, in the closet, her favorite spots. "Mew!" Here I am, Mom, hidden in plain sight.

I've accidently locked Pearl in my closet a few times before. She usually started meowing so it doesn't take long for me to rescue her.

When my RB Pepper was a kitten he door dashed as I was bringing in my laundry. I didn't notice that he had done this. My front door opens up to a hallway. A little while later I heard a loud meowing but I couldn't find Pepper. I finally opened up the front door and there he was. At least he was smart enough to know which door was his home and to meow to alert me.

Sky's also been locked in my roommates closet and bedroom before. He loves to visit and he usually doesn't meow or complain so I have to go looking for him.

Sparkle has gotten herself closed in closets more times than I can count, in the 13 years she has been with me. That girl is so NOSEY!

Her latest is her OWN fault. She plays with the kitchen cabinets, gets inside, then can't get herself out. She sits slamming the door until I go open it for her. Out she struts, proud as can be! She has trained her human!

With 10 cats, 14 furkids, I regularly do a tail count. If I need to know where Dad is too, I do a nose count!
