Tonight as usual, Cheri went to bed before me and after about a half hour I heard her speaking French to Van Gogh. OK, it wasn't French. I went in to see what was wrong and she said Van Gogh was making all kinds of racket but she didn't know where she was. I turned on the light and could see that all the drawers in my dresser were partially open. The top drawer was wide open. I listened for a minute and sure enough, I heard her faintly making noise somewhere in the dresser, but I couldn't tell exactly which drawer. Pushing them closed or opening them could hurt her so I had to be very careful.
I slowly closed each drawer listening for any protest or resistance but I didn't hear anything till I got to the next to last drawer, when I heard some dissatisfied growling. She had worked her way all the way down from the top drawer to the very bottom, pushing each drawer out a few inches on her way down. I slowly pulled the bottom drawer open and the growling protests got louder. When I could finally see her, she did not seem happy to see me. She slowly crawled out of the drawer, growling and glaring at me all the way, but the adventure was over. John
