I haven't had that happen, but since we moved to our apt. nearly 5 years ago we periodically will get calls for someone we do not know. You'd think they would give up by now, but they don't. We generally let the answering machine pick up unless I recognize the number, like my Dr.'s office. We keep a land line phone because our son pays for both of our cell phones, so we don't want to abuse the privilege. I love your cat, reminds me of my Casper, but he had lighter grey, almost like horns on his forehead, when I lost him I went from having a white cat to an all black cat, but they were and are a definite stress reliever. Cute kitty.
