My boy's outside ..... in thunder and lightning

OK, so I know he'll be tucked up somewhere and is probably snug as a bug, but still worried:(.

It was beautiful & sunny before & he popped out but it's now pelting down, thundering and the odd bit of lightning.

Have yelled and my wee girl cat appeared at a rate of knots across the garden, but no sign of my boy.

Have checked the "dog" kennel (which is the cats outside safe place if they're stuck outside when I'm out) as he often hides in there if it rains and I have to go and "collect" him and bring him in .... but not there.

I'm just a little worried as this is what it was like when he went missing for 3 days. :(:(:(

    All three of mine were out in it and have since returned, some wetter than others :rotfl:

    He's probably just waiting until it stops, I understand your worry though if he's gone missing before. I worry about my lot so much it's a wonder I've got any hair left :rotfl:

    Just found him!:D

    He's not a happy boy but is now safe and sound inside (if a little freaked out).

    on Thursday we had the storms too and a full 2 inches of hailstones, the noise on the conservatory roof was horrendous, I couldnt hear myself think, its a good job he wasnt out in that, he would have been battered and bruised the way they were coming down.

    Glad he's back.................
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    Glad to hear he is home safe & sound!
    I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.
