Genius Cat

Yesterday, Mike and I went to the SPCA to get Shadow a friend (we renamed Peanut because the name just didn't suit. He's black and follows me everywhere, ergo, Shadow). Anyway, we got this quiet little gray kitty named Jitterbug. He found the most amazing hiding spot! I'd have taken a picture but it was such a dark little alcove and I didn't want to terrify him with the flash--he's scared enough being in a new house with new people.

Anyway, we have this dresser for junk that I've had since I was about 7. In the back, there's this 3 inch high little indent. Today we went looking for him because we were worried. We were going to let him stay there, of course, it just put my mind at ease to know where he was hiding and that he didn't by some bizarre happening gotten out of the house, you know?

So we were moving the dresser out of the way to move the bed in the spare room and mike saw his tail dart out for an instant. Well, he's moved to hiding on one of the chairs at the kitchen table instead now, but as long as we know where he is he can take as much time as he needs. Once he's used to his new home I'll take some pictures.
