I have this big box that my new cat boxes came in, and I've left it on the floor for the cats to play in.


So I've now cut an escape hole onto the back, and some little peep holes on the sides.
In other Haley news... I'm afraid I really freaked her out at the last false fire alarm -- the one when a woman screamed, and for the first time Haley went running under the bed and I had to pull her out in order to get her in her box and out of the apartment.
Today they're testing the fire bells and people's smoke detectors. The fire bell goes off once in awhile, just briefly, and it's spooking Haley. When the dudes came to my door to check the detector, she ran under the bed and wouldn't even come out for Snappy Toms!!

Just now there was another short ring, and Haley jumped and started to run off. But I see her prowling around, so she hasn't headed for the bed yet. She keeps looking suspiciously at the door.

I sometimes wonder at all the strange human-generated noises that spook our pets and compare that to 'stuff' that happens in our lives we don't understand that sends us (figuratively) diving for cover... I'm reminded of a line in a Dougie Mclean song, I Am Ready For the Storm - " ... I realize I had no reasons to be frightened."
