LOL I love kitties. Mine is 18 years old. He ends up in some funny places as well....when he was younger he would run up the curtains and sit on the curtain rod. It was about eight feet high. Now he likes to sit on the couchtable and he looks like a statue. :heart
Fifty-five degrees? :omg I put a sweater on after it hits 73. LOL
I wish someone could take a picture of me when I'm on-line. I have 3 Maltese dogs...2 have to be held when I'm at the computer. They lie butt to butt on the desk. Missy's head goes across my left arm and Abby's head goes across my right. It's so sweet.

Safe to assume that you're going to endure this the whole babysitting time period. :sad Oh joy.
Absolutely not! She could trek far away in search of a mate, or even get 'gang raped' by many male cats who smell her. Trust me, they can get really injured and you don't need that to worry about.Quote:
And secondly, should we let her go outside before the neighbors come back? We didn't discuss any of this before they left on their vacation. They should be back by New Year's eve.
Sorry about the constant whining you're hearing. It's not fun, and I definitely feel sorry for you.
I've mentioned this in some thread a while ago, but years ago, my cat got out while in heat, and I couldn't believe how lucky I was that she didn't get pregnant. Phew! Sometime later, she had two kittens in the silverware drawer......true story. :teeth DON'T LET HER OUTSIDE.Quote:
