Angel

I had a fright yesterday when Ana decided to have a tour of my neighbours garden.
The cats have free run of a small but secure netted garden.
I had been cutting back the ivy in the garden which had gone a little wild over the summer. This had left the smallest of gaps, and I had noticed Ana looking with intent at the gap but I convinced myself that she wouldn't dare try or even fit through the gap. How wrong I was, within the hour my neighbour came round banging on the front door exclaiming that there was a gray cat in her garden.( everyone is well aware of the gray cats in the crazy cat ladies house and that those cats are far too posh to mix with the street cats!)
A frantic search began, but Ana was nowhere to be found, I was sick with worry. After a very long hour my 10 year old daughter spotted Ana in our garden but she was trapped between the secure-a-cat fencing and Boris' stud house. Ana must have seen the neighbour and jumped back into my garden. She was stuck in the narrowest of gaps. The fencing had to be taken down in order for Ana to get free and back to safety.
Ana will be staying in for a while, her own choice, and the fence has been repaired....this time without gaps!
