My ex-husband and I would always make sure the animals were accounted for before we went to bed at night. One night we could not find the cat, we looked everywhere, I don't know what possessed me to open the refrigerator, I guess because we had exhausted all the other avenues, and there he was!! He was a grey tiger just like your Tigger too!

Maybe he was getting those last tidbits off for you!

I guess that's why they say curiousity killed the cat! My cat stuck his head in a plastic grocery bag my son had just emptied. Unfortunately he stuck his head through the handle, so when he took off running the bag followed! That was about 6 months ago, he still jumps when he hears the crinkle of a grocery bag.

Better always check the washer, dryer, and anything else for kitty before starting it now.

(I am serious about that!)

OMG, cats sure do get themselves into trouble, don't they. :lol:

I always look and see where they are before bed. They can't get to the washer & dryer because they are in the garage and the cats don't go out there. With 3 around, I have to keep an eye on them constantly. :lol: :roll:

Mine stuck his paw into an empty light socket - now whatever possessed him to do that? It was one of those pole lamps with 3 lights, it was on, we heard a zap, saw a spark and smoke, cat jumped about 30 feet. The cat survived but the lamp did not. And yes, this was the same cat I found in the refrigerator.

Do be careful, though. My sister used to live with us, and she'd opened the dryer door one morning to get a work shirt out. She left the dryer door open while she went to the bathroom to put her shirt on. She saw that the shirt was wrinkled, so she tossed the shirt back into the dryer to knock the wrinkles out, started the dryer to running, and went back to the bathroom.

Luckily she noticed the dryer was making a WHUMPING sound, and she went to see what was wrong. She opened the door, and a very frazzled (but fortunately unhurt) kitty came streaking out! :shock:

I think they both learned a lesson that day ... for her to LOOK in the dryer before starting it ... and the cat learned that dryer doesn't make a good place for a nap! :lol:

This happened to my aunt's cat, too. He was fine, and she said that he came out nice and fluffy!! That cat was always getting into something -- usually a situation where any "normal" cat would have killed itself, but he always managed to survive! One time he was even run over by her husband!! He must have had 18 lives instead of the usual 9!!! :lol:

Love the pic!!! Such a sweet face! :wink:
