Stripey, our cat, has been missing since sometime yesterday. We weren't really sure the last time we saw him. Abbie & Will are notorious for letting Stripey out. This is a bit of an issue since Stripey has no front claws and is not meant to be outside. Lately, when he has escaped, he hasn't made it very far before he comes running to the door. Even if he is in hiding briefly, a few good shakes of his treats, and he is running for the door.
Last night he simply could not be found. I was pretty sure we would never see him again. To be honest, I felt too sick to even worry about him. Though, it did cross my mind a few times that my cat was running defenseless outside.
Tonight, around 6:30, Andy was going to get me a Sprite and some laffy taffy (cravings, yes) when he opened his trunk for some odd reason. Stripey was sleeping in the trunk! I believe he is a bit traumatized! A lot of meowing and aimless wandering since he has been inside. My poor kitty! We have no idea how or when he got inside Andy's trunk. It had to be sometime Saturday afternoon.
Good thing Stripey is going to live with my mom and dad soon. I think he needs a home with a bit more TLC for the furry "kids."

Lisa and Dick are going to have three cats now? They should be careful, lest they end up being the old people on the news with the animal control people rescuing their 800 cats...
No, only 2. Callie had to be put to sleep a few years ago. It will just be Grazy and Stripey.
Oh that is a good story! I can't even imagine how he got in there!
