Message: [QUOTE="Scrutineer, post: 4437262, member: 8240"] Happy endings are always great. Happy Thanksgiving too! Quick, funny story, involving one of our cats when we lived in a small city in Upstate NY. One of our two cats was adventurous and would burst out the door whenever she could and one day in early Fall she did so and didn't come back. We got on our bikes and rode the streets in a half mile radius, calling her name, but quit when it got dark. Before work the next day and after work we did the same. No luck. The third evening, during dinner, I had a premonition and looked out on the back door landing and there she was, huddled up near the door looking up at me. She was such a good cat and we were relieved she hadn't been run over or snatched up by a fox or some other animal. We had no idea where she had been for 2 1/2 days until my neighbor mentioned something when I told him she had gone missing and come home. He had a barn that he used as a garage and a workshop and often would leave the door open during the day and close it at night. He hadn't opened the door for several days and when he did that day the cat shot out the door and to our back porch. [/QUOTE]
