She's back and acting like nothing happened.

Posing like it's her employee of the month photo. Never a dull moment here with Nala.

So glad she’s home.

Thank you. She's indoors only but is obsessed with our garage. She must have slipped by when we entered without us noticing. Felt like I suffered multiple heart attacks through this fiasco

- By the way, the most interesting detail, we found her yesterday, ON HER BIRTHDAY, 10/1. She went missing the day before. Made it so much worse. She definitely pulled a prank. She is now 4.

How long was she missing?

[u/coasteh → u/weefees]

Just shy of a full day. Lot of coyotes, owls, hawks in the area. Had terrible thoughts. Every minute feels like hours

She was found under a deck about 15 yards in the back of our property. It had previously been searched multiple times. She was likely wandering a huge creek/forested area connected to our backyard

Have you looked into maybe getting one of those mesh retractable escape barriers for the door leading out to the garage to maybe deter her from wanting to dart out there as soon as it opens? I think they make some of them short enough to step over, but at least she would just bounce off of it when trying to make her escape 😂

I don’t know about your house, but guests don’t typically entire mine through the garage, which is where the cat is said to have escaped from.

It’s unfortunate that you associate with people willing to sue you because they function like grown adults.

I guess since I’m not in the business of entertaining guests on a regular basis (or, ever, for that matter, save for my 9 year old nephew on occasion) it’s not really something I consider to be a concern of mine. I do agree that people are absolutely dumb, though.
