Big news

[cybermule]

I'm applying for a new job. Better paid, more interesting, and closer to home. Plus, I'm perfectly qualified.

Keep fingers crossed...

Had kitty related trauma yesterday - I went out around 4, and shut the cat out, fairly safe in the knowledge that both myself and Dai would be home in a couple of hours.

No sign of kitty when we both got home around 6, and I had a bad feeling.

No sign of kitty still at nine o'clock, when she hadn't eaten all day.

So I started panicking, and wandered around outside calling her. And suddenly I heard a faint but familiar meoww. And tracked it down to one of the locked garages in the communal yard :((

Obviously I went into a really big flap, because at that point, she knew I was outside, and her meows were becomign quite pitiful and heart-rending. I don't think she was in distress, just fussing. Luckily, one of our neighbours knew a relative of the lady that owned the garage, and she came home to let the cat out.

Lovely lady - I'm going to buy her some flowers.

And so a tearful cybermule was reunited with her dumbass cat.

More on the weekend later...

Cats really do have nine lives, don't they? Last year Angus got locked in our shed for the best part of a weekend. He'd got shut in hiding from the rain on the Friday night and then I'd gone away for the weekend leaving my poor lodger frantically trying to track down a missing cat when he didn't turn up for breakfast, dinner or breakfast again. He only heard a faint miaowing from the shed on Sunday morning, by which time Angie was covered in soot and somewhat p*ssed off, to say the least. Poor P was sobbing with relief when he found him!

Luckily Angus is a big fat b*gger so suffered no ill effects from his incarceration. Which is a good thing really, being that we worked out that it had been me that had locked the shed door... **sheepish look**

I was in tears when we got Amelia back. Mainly cos she's a scrawny little thing, and I was worried she might starve.
