Re: Finding Sophie

[Nina]

Barb's post reminded me of the time Instigator, (yes, he earns his 
name!), got himself closed in a desk drawer.  He was itty bitty at the 
time, so I don't know if Sophie would fit, but he had gone into the 
drawer to explore and it was shut without knowing he was in there.  
After frantically searching for him, and looking in places where he just 
couldn't be, i.e. a desk drawer, we opened the drawer and he jumped to 
the drawer below! 

I sure hope Sophie turns up in a place that will make an amusing story 
some day.  Please come home Sophie!

also check under big pieces of furniture you wouldn't necessarily 
think of as hiding places.  Lucky had hidden behind the china cabinet, 
under Mom's chair and under the pie chest.  One time when my boys were 
first with me and very wee I couldn't find them anywhere.  I'd been 
living in a 435 sq ft apartment!!!  I eventually found the two of them 
under my little hutch - it has a scrollwork detail on the front bottom 
and it had just enough clearance for them to bear rug themselves under 
it.  Once they squirmed out, I rolled up a blanket and blocked it.  Of 
course, now that Bandit is 9.5-10lbs and Smoky is about 17.5lbs, THAT 
isn't an issue!  Check your computer desk if it has any nooks and 
crannies a kitty could fit into.
