Yesterday we needed to head to town, so JD and I were waiting at the garage. He went around back and told the boys to come on. Which they did through the back deck door, down the stairs, and out to the garage.
When we returned I could hear Roo talking about a door open but didn't think to much about it. I then went upstairs to find trash torn out of the bag, it looked like a dog had been in the house. I couldn't figure it out...

Then I seen the birthday cake on the table it was all gone, what is going on? Then I remembered Roo saying something about a door being open so I questioned her.

I then realized the barn cats had the run of our house

which meant Gideon and Bella were prolly G-O-N-E. Now my inside cats no longer go outside after the scare we had last November. Now I love my cats to a point that some would say I'm crazy (we all talk and sing to our pets its just that some don't admit it)
Fear strikes me what if they got on the highway, what if the got out in the field and something happens, what if they get lost.

I tear on some shoes and head outside where the barn cats are very happy and playing on the covered pool. No wonder with all that white icing and strawberry cake in them...

I start to holler for Bella and spot her on the n'bors porch. The n'bor with two dogs, now Bella if you remember hates dogs and will take any of them on.

I just pictured the n'bors letting out their younger lab (who Bella attacked when he got in our house this summer) and their older lab...can you imagine their shock if this little furball all of a sudden went into her kick some dog mode? Thankfully she headed my way when she heard her name and ran into the house where JD was waiting.

I then started my hunt for Gideon and fearing the worst when my little Gideon didn't come to his name.
I turned then to holler my fears up to JD when I spotted him, he was trying to catch the gold fish out of the pond.
I gathered him up and took him inside and watched the barn cats gather on the front porch like can we come back in please? : )
