The cable TV guy was here, trying to find a bad connection. He wanted to check the connection in the attic, so we went out in the garage to go up the stairs.
I was up there with him a few minutes and came back down, only to see Sterling standing and contemplating the big outdoors through the open garage door (I opened it earlier to go out back to talk to the cable guy). I shooed him back in the house and did a quick nose count, finding only 2. I couldn't find Punkin.
I went back out in the alley, looked both ways, and saw a big yellow and white tail disappearing around the corner of the fence. I ran up there, and when Punkin saw me, he took off running the other direction in that panicked, "Get me out of here!" mode. I followed him around the corner of the house, and watched as he went several houses up and went between two houses.
When I got up there, no sign of him. I went out in the alley. Nothing. So I went back out in front of the houses, and started looking under bushes, etc. I found Punkin lying winded under a bush, and managed to catch him.
Boy, Dottie would have killed me if I hadn't found him! Naughty boy!
