I was holding Kylie in the garden and she wanted to go on the fence at the back (6ft+). She can't get on there as she is too fat now. I put her up and she was quite happy. I heard the phone go and came back inside. After that I was looking on the computer and forgot about Kylie
I heard one of the vet nurses shout at her dog out the back and ran out - luckily it was on a lead! - Kylie had scarpered over the back somewhere. Then we had the most almighty downpour -I unlocked the gate and went out every 5 minutes calling her without luck - the rain was so heavy, it made a pond of the gravel road I share with the vet. eventually after about 1/2 hour, a very wet miowy kylie appeared. She couldn't get around the "pond" and I've never heard her miow so much. I eventally got her and she ran in the house drenched. I rubbed her down with a towel (much to her disgust) and she was rolling on her back and headbutting me - I think it scared her (and me!)
She is in the bedroom grooming now and I don't think she will be wandering off for a while
