    THE CAT IS BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    It was sheer luck I found her. I went to my adjoining neighbours' neighbour to ask him if he'd check his garage for Mia. As he came out to do so I heard these little squeaks and thought she was in the garage. Nope she wasn't in there. Started calling again and heard another little noise from the hedge that separates their properties. It's a fir tree hedge, very close cut and well maintained and she was wedged in there. Had to prise the damn thing apart to get her out.
    She's a bit skittish but unhurt. Bl00dy animals - I do not need this sort of upset. The kids kept asking why she hadn't come home. DD said she'd gone to the shops :rotfl::rotfl:

    Hugs for Loulou - I wish I was closer as I'd come and give you a hand xx

    Hugs for Candy - just because of the carppy stress x

    Moneysaver - Enjoy your night out and welcome to the thread.

    I am going to go and have a lie down, I've been on tenterhooks all day and feel drained :o

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: I see what you did there ;):p

    I am going to turn her into a rug (well enough to cover the front of a cushion ;)) so she can't get stuck or AWOL again. She's my little fur baby and I had visions on her starving to death somewhere :o:o:o

    My dog Molly stresses out when I get too close to Kids Dad IYSWIM!!!

    She deliberately places herself between us and is at this moment lying on my bed in a most contented position that precludes anyone else getting close to me!!

    Just catching up and sending hugs to you all. I have had a bad day or two. My eldest son is having difficulties again:( :( and it makes me feel really sad. My OS is minimal but moneysaving as I have not been out today.
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    Glad she is back,
    Our male cat when he was a kitten he had been out quite afew times and alsways came beck then one day he did not come back we looked everywere for him. After a couple of hours we found him stuck up a tree. I had to clime up and get him down.

    Then a few days later he did not come home again. We again looked everywere for him up every tree that we could find by our house, could not find him anywere, He was out all night.
    When we got up in the morning he was sat by the back door!

    We have never had any trouble with our female cat. Thye are 6 years old this november and sometime they do stop out all night now, but normaly only in the summer.

    I hope you enjoy her,
    Good luck:j:j
