Weirdest place you've found your cat...

[kokopup]

When ever we have company Kallie usually will run off and hide somewhere. Whenever the company is gone she usually reappears within a short time. We had an unexpected visitor that was only there for a short time but after a long wait we started worrying about Kallie. We did have the door open for a long time so we were worried that she slipped by us while we were at the door talking. Then we started the search of our house looking in all of her usual hideouts and then we were getting franic because we had looked everywhere at least we thought we had. Most places I probably checked 2 or 3 times.

In our entrance way there is a half bath that has on old fashion treadle sewing machines in it. When it is folded up it makes a very compact box shaped piece of furniture that we use as a corner table in the bath. I had looked under the machine at least 3 times and recall thinking with that treadle, Which I could see, across the bottom, she couldn't get in the machine. I also recall thinking with the way things fold up there is no room inside either. Well as it turns out I was wrong on both counts. After literally tearing the house asunder I decided one last time to look under that machine and then I said what the heck, and I opened the machine door. There huddled on the treadle was kallie. Looking at the size of the opening under the bottom we still can't figure out how she got in there.

Our sweet kallie now has a small world. Since she is both deaf and blind we keep her in our Bedroom, bath, sunroom suite. She manages to find her food and litter box, but she gets disoriented from time to time, and just wanders around yowing until she find a familar spot. We are amazed at how well she does. Kallie will soon be 18, which I guess is pretty old for a cat.

Marbles is finding new places every day. None are too strange (well, I think the kitchen sink is a strange place to hang out, but she likes it), but this morning she surprised me at the top of the ladder I have stored in the hallway. Apparently she likes to get up high and was quite proud of her little self.

She likes the bathtub and an old cat carrier that I keep hidden in a corner next to a heater - that's her special snuggie hidey hole. She also likes to sit in the windows and it doesn't matter where they look out. I live in a 100-year old Victorian with strange airways with "windows" leading to the airway; there's nothing to look at, but Marbles like to sit there and just stare.

I found Juke Joint Joseph one time in the bradbox where he had lain on and squahed my last loaf of bread
I found Moose behind the books in my bookcase , where someone he was so well hidden that I couldnt see his 18 pounds.
Michael has hidden himself literally under the muslin of the bed and has scared me that he had sneaked out
A few of My Cats hid under the basement stairs , up in the rafters and in the smallest spaces where you would think theu couldnt fit
Scrappy 2 used to sleep on top of the curtains where they connect to the wall, and once was in the wash tub downstairs.
I didnt notice until I threw some wet shirts in!!!
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPPPPS!

My cats have never hidden under the covers in my bed but I've found Pearl hidden under the recliner cover on the seat part. She'll also hide under the skirt part of it to try to ambush the other cats as they walk by. Sunny used to hide under the skirt of my couch cover. I'd see a big lump and usually it would be him but sometimes it would be Pearl. Pearl also loves to hide in my closet if I let her. Storm was caught on top of my refrigerator one night because my former roommate told me how he scared her. I've also found Storm in the cabinet under the sink in my hall bathroom.

Had a good chuckle at all the kitty adventure stories here

My RB Meezer liked to sleep on top of the curtain rod in the living room, and also on top of doors. Another cat used to open the cabinet in the kitchen where I keep the pots and pans, and curl up and sleep in one of them. Another was a bathroom sink sleeper.

My son's 2 cats, get inside the recliner by pulling the fabric on the back out, just enough to get inside. They also open the door to the linen closet and sleep on the clean towels. They also have a secret place that no hoomans have found yet. They go missing, we search all the regular places, and can't find them. They eventually reappear when it suits them.....

Seine loved to hide and find out of the way spots. At our old house I would take the cats outside with me. They had harnesses and leashes, so they were slowed down and they couldn't leave the yard. We were outside for awhile and I couldn't see Seine. I called and heard meowing- from the roof!! She liked to climb a tree in the yard and must have hopped over to the house. Luckily she was able to get down.

At our current house, she figured out how to push the screen out from the door without scratching it so we wouldn't notice. She also went up into the ceiling by the dryer vent once.

Kiki managed to get stuck in the fridge once and I'm not entirely sure how- thankfully she was fine!

Desmond likes to "hide" under the livingroom rug at times. He's not really too hidden though because you can see a huge lump in the middle of the rug!

Aren't cats the best?
