I don't know how they do it.
I'm at my parents' house for the Christmas break, and of course the boys are with me. Since the parents' house is not in any way cat-proofed (and the boys would get into something even if it was
) we keep them back where all the bedrooms are, with a sliding wooden door between the rest of the house and the bedrooms.
Every once in awhile, we'll see a cat in the living room, and escort them back to the door. This evening, Mom saw Billy out, even though the door was already closed. So we opened it and got him back inside.
Then Mom says that another cat is out. So I chase him down into my parents' bedroom (which is separate from the rest). He's hiding under the bed, around some underbed storage units. So I move them around trying to get them out, and suddenly, he just disappears!
I checked in their bathroom, in the closet, under the bed, everywhere! Couldn't find him. Searched for probably 10-20 minutes.
So I go back into the closed off area, see Billy, ask him where his brother is. Billy just looked at me.
Mention to my human brother that I can't find Chay anywhere. He says "He's right behind you." And lo and behold, there he is!!
He somehow got all the way through the house and through the closed sliding door back to where he belonged, without anyone seeing him!!
I think they do it to me on purpose.
They probably know how to get in and out of the door and do it just to confuse me!
Does anyone else have magical Houdini kitties?
