Cat on a hot tin roof

Last night we had a cat on our terrace! I heard some noises in the middle of the night. At first I thought it was H fumbling, then I heard a sound that could be a bunny's thumping so I went out to see if everything was ok. As I opened the door, a creature, H I thought, scampered in direction the bunny fence and "the forbidden zone". I followed just to make sure the fence was properly closed. As I came closer, this creature leaped over the fence and landed on the window ledge outside the bathroom. I was petrified, realised it must have been a cat. I rushed back to H's house and found her inside (innocent!) - completely indifferent. With shaking hands I put the hatches back on to lock her in and ran inside. Luckily nothing had happened to H. I’m still scared. And poor cat, taking a stroll on a 6th floor hot tin roof is not very self-preserving in the long run.

do you mean - have ever had any doubts as to bunny being not innocent??? bunny is always innocent:)

bunny's mostly innocent, but it is hard to give her the benefit of the doubt when she's being caught red pawed chewing on a lamp cord...

I would consider following explanation for this sticky situation: it is her evil bunny-twin sister doing pranks, then this sister disappears and here we go, no one else to blame for chewed cord,poor hairyyet

right, and because she's got an evil bunny twin sister hanging around, we might as well give her twice as much pellets and goodies - to feed her twin sister, huh?

good point, haven't thought about it though. hmmm, well, as I am the one spoiling our girl, the answer is yes, let's feed the evil twin sister too :D (I am sure H wouldn't mind)
