So i moved house last weekend... 3 miles or so to my own place.
Day 1 , moved , Cat went in hiding upstairs
Day 2, cat still in hiding
Night 2, mowooaoowowowowowowowowowoowowowowo
then comes down, walks up to me
MOAAAAWWOWOWOWOOWOOAOAOWOWOWOWOWWO
@#$@#$@
I get out a water sprayer for plants
MOAW splash
5 minutes later, he's back at it
No sleep
day 3, cat back in hiding.
night 3, see night 2
No sleep
Day 4, cat back in hiding, comes downstairs a few time
Seems to be adjusting a bit.
Backdoor open, with supervision, doesn't come out
night 4, same old same old.
Day 5, All good, walks around, sits on the window sill watching the street
Walks out the back a few times, but not to far
evening 5, walking around in the backyard a bit, it's walled, and fenced in the back,
i go inside for one second, and he makes a break for it...
Now it's obvious he was just intentionally wearing me down with sleep deprivation, to make me drop my guard, leaving him an escape route.
Let's hope he has a decent sense of direction, and enough street smarts to carry him back to the old house, for me to collect him...
The young'n, Boris, on the right, he's been brilliant, he adapted on day 1, when i opened the door in the back, he walked around a bit, didn't do anything stupid, just walks, snifs, then goes back indoors...
Damn Bubba, keep your head down , watch left and right when you cross the street, and see you in a day or two at the old house...or just come back to the new place...
Luckily he's "fixed" , won't roam, or chase the girls... he's very cautious by nature, bit antisocial when it comes to people and other critters...If he can't kill it, he doesn't like hanging out with it either.
Sucks knowing he's out there somewhere, my buddy of 4 years, at least Boris is still around or i'de be really bummed out in an otherwise empty house...
