I've been a bad kitty mom. I locked Ruby in a drawer.

Yesterday, I spotted my nearly 10-month-old giant kitten Max draped across an open drawer. I removed him and closed the drawer. I thought everything was fine until I couldn't find Ruby. So I searched for her all over the room (I thought someone let her out), and opened the drawer Max was lying in yesterday, and lo and behold, there was Ruby! She has been in that drawer all along and I didn't even know it!
Ruby's out of the drawer now, about to enjoy some of the Christmas dinner we're preparing.

1. Poor Ruby! But don't beat yourself up.

Assuage your guilt by giving her a Christmas meats feast.

2. something similar happened to me once

i was in my room and heard this pitiful meowing. i searched the room and couldn't find the cat, so i search the house and still don't find the cat. i finally found my roommate's cat in one of my dresser drawers.

i still have no idea how she got in there :shrug:

3. one of mine crawled into the underbed drawers on our waterbed and

got stuck behind them. I heard this whining (unmistakably Clark) and finally tracked him to the waterbed cave. I still don't know how he got his huge self back there in the first place

4. When our cat was a kitten,

she actually dug a cave for herself up from underneath the mattress. We had half a dozen times where we could hear her crying from inside the bed but couldn't see her or figure out where she'd gone. She tried to do the same with the next mattress we bought so we had to line the bottom of the bed with boards temporarily.

5. cats can get into the strangest places! One of ours got down in the sleeper sofa

in the big cavity behind the folded up mattresses. Again, it was track the meow until we found her. She was tiny then.

8. Never have two more horrible children been portrayed in animation

At least two out of three episodes of that wretched show involve some quest for candy. And where the hell are the parents?

9. I aslk that every time. Where are the parents? They have a grandma, but no folks?

10. You're not alone

The first week we got our second cat, Jasmine, I did nearly the same thing. I was in a hurry to get to work in the morning--grabbed some clothes out of the bedroom closet and then shut the door. I never saw her wander in there! When I got home that night I heard the most pitiful squeaking (she never has meowed properly--just kind of spouts "meeps" and "aiyees"). Followed the squeaks to the bedroom and opened the closet door--she wandered out nonchalantly and seemed none the worse for wear. She never even did any "business" in there all day.

The funny thing is she LOVES closets--she's has a soft spot for them as special hidey places ever since! But then again, she's a very strange kitteh...
:rofl:

11. Cats get into trouble on their own. You should have seen one of my cats this morning as we were

opening gifts... she eyed every bag, every punched up piece of wrapping paper. She was into everything..particularly string. What clowns pets are.

12. I always check the refrigerator first....

Then the washer and dryer. I go on to check out all the cabinets and drawers. They're never in any of those places, but I'm paranoid about stuff like that.
