- I have always been deathly afraid that this same thing would happen to us.
- It seems that Spike and Harry are the most interested in getting into
- places where they are not permitted to go. One time Harry got into the
- attic when I was not looking and I had to get down on hands and knees and
- chase this sneaky cat back and forth in the attic, all around boxes and I
- am a large woman this was not an easy task. Boy was I mad. I hope that
- your cat is ok and maybe he/she will have learned about the treacherous
- attic.
