I have decided to call this little photo-story “What the hell is happening here?”
Although he did it in our previous house, Louis Catorze has never used the bathroom window here as an entrance or exit route – well, not to our knowledge. But, last night, for whatever reason, he did. Nobody knows why.
Once through, he arsed around outside for a while, making creepy shadows like a chupacabra, so I thought I’d leave him to it and go to bed.
Then the screaming started.
For a while I ignored it, thinking he had jumped down to ground level, come in through the cat flap and started annoying Cat Daddy. Catorze’s screams are loud enough that they can be heard from another floor in the house. However, that wasn’t what had happened. The stupid little shite was still outside the bathroom window, and appeared to be stuck.
Where do I even START in unpicking how a cat who jumped out, can’t or won’t jump back in?
Eventually I couldn’t handle the screaming anymore, so I let Catorze back in and went back to bed. And, immediately, I regretted my decision, because I have now taught him that he has a new place through which, if he screams loudly enough and for long enough, some chump will let him back in.
So now it’s not a question of IF, but of WHEN Catorze will do this again. Will it be tomorrow night, and every night thereafter for the rest of his life? Or will he let me think he’s forgotten about it, then launch a surprise attack the night before I need to do something very important?
