Luna strikes again
So it's Friday afternoon and I'm sitting watching TV. I start hearing
agitated meows that seem to be coming from outside. I figure it's the grey and white kitty that does that sometimes. However, the sound keeps moving from the front to the side and it's very clear. Suddenly it hits me, that's Luna's meow!!! I count heads and indeed Luna is missing. I look everywhere and I start to panic a little bit. I then remember the AC closet was open a while ago, I chased Fez out of it and looked in but didn't see anybody else. It seems Luna climbed to the top of the AC unit and somehow got into the attic space between the ceiling and the roof. I go outside and start calling her. The eves in the front and sides of the house have vents that connect to the attic space, to help with cooling in the summer I'm told. These vents are screened with wire mesh to prevent bugs or critters from moving in (we used to have a racoon family living there). Suddenly Luna's face is looking at me through the mesh and her meowing gets very loud and scared/relieved. I jump and pull the screen off a section of the eve and I'm able to see her face. However, she's near a corner so she doesn't fit through the exposed hole and there's a wooden beam blocking her way. So I go get a chair, I climb up and tear off a bit of the material (asbestos, btw) used on the outside "ceiling". I reach in and grab Luna, who proceeds to claw me until she figures out I'm trying to help. :-S Down we came and I took her back inside. She gave me a big scare! Did I mention I called Tom when I realized she was missing and he ran out of work in a panic? Well, he did, so I called him as soon as we were safe to let him know and to prevent a high-speed drive home. She's such a trouble maker! But she was extra sweet all afternoon, seemed grateful for the rescue... -- Victor Martinez Owned and operated by the Fantastic Seven (TM) Send your spam he Email me he |

Victor, do you have gray hair yet from all the kitty antics? And Tom too?

Tom's had a grey head since before we met, so he can't blame the cats... -- Victor Martinez Owned and operated by the Fantastic Seven (TM) Send your spam he Email me he |

I'm starting to see a pattern here. Fez. I predict he will cause a lot of
problems that the other cats might be too dignified to instigate themselves. Jo "Victor Martinez" wrote in message ... So it's Friday afternoon and I'm sitting watching TV.

I'm glad you found her and all was well. Scary about having asbestos in
your house though! -- Britta Check out pictures of Vino at: http://photos.yahoo.com/badwilson click on the Vino album "Victor Martinez" wrote in message ...
