Mysteriously disappearing cat toys

[Russian Blue]

We bought Nakita a furry black mouse that is approx. the size of your hand. We have not been able to find it for the last couple of months!

We live in a small house, and this mouse toy cannot fit under the couch or appliances. I have turned this house upside down and gave up on finding it! We went out 2 months ago and bought her a new one.

But where is the old mouse? Is Nakita secretly a magician with fur because that is the only explanation I have for this missing mouse!

Under the stove and the fridge are the # 1 places in our house. The second best place for a toy to be lost is in the basement....funny how many twisty ties, bouncy balls, and fake mice see to migrate to the basement.

Smokey also has a tendency to place his bouncy balls in his daddy's running shoes.

catmandu, that's an interesting theory, and it could be true, because they always seem to remember where they have hidden their toys!

Russian Blue, this is one of the cases when you start wondering if there are these mysterious holes that connect us with parallel universes or something like that! Years ago, it happened to my sister that a pair of batteries fell from her table and she never found them again, not even when she moved out. And she has seen them falling... it was really weird! Maybe Nakita has found one of these holes!

Smokey also has a tendency to place his bouncy balls in his daddy's running shoes.

LOL; that sounds very much like feline basket ball!

We were having trouble with our oven and had to call for repairs. When the serviceman removed the base off the stove and the bottom drawer, he took one look underneath and said, "You must have a cat." He pulled out an assortment of furry mice, straws, Briggs' favorite rattly mouse from her kittenhood and other treasures. It was obvious this fellow was a cat lover and we had a nice conversation the rest of the time he was working.

A very small mouse just surfaced in the tiny space between the kitchen cabinet and the fridge. IF it was under the fridge, how did it all of a sudden make its way out?
