THE GREAT ADVENTURES OF "BABY LOVE"-WHERE IS HE??

We had quite an ordeal over the weekend with Baxterbiter-" alias Baby Love" we call him. For all you animal lovers this LOG is dedicated to you. We woke up Sunday morning after getting to sleep in to about 9:00. It was my grandbabys B-day party so I needed to wrap her gifts. My cats are always in the bed with us-and Baxter always wants to be fed the second you are up-you know what I mean. I thought where is he -he must have found a bird to look at on the deck downstairs. I called him to eat- and Bushy-Love our other cat kept meowing in my face. She comes when you call anyone or anything else. No Baxter!! We knew he was not outside-he is not allowed out at all-but when I went to bed he was on top of the computer- as usual. My hubby and I were getting worried-heck frantic is the word! We went to the basement-he always comes when you call. I had visions of him being stuck somewhere!! I called my younger son Nate- who lives 5 minutes away-and he came over to help his dad. They discovered that he must have went through this hole in the basement wall that is designed to get to the plumbing for the second bathroom. We live in a townhouse. My son said there was a hole that went to the next apartment -a person could only get their arm in it!! The girl next door has not been there in awhile-I thought how would we get him!! Marsh took our ladder on the deck-and climbed over the divider of the townhouses and got on the neighbors deck!!! He called Baxter at the sliding doors and here he come!!! He was in the next apartment!!! Marsh tired the door and it was open. Got the curious george-by that time he was scared and his little heart was pounding!!! He was thinking -this is not my house -where is my cat dish!!! Marsh handed him to our son on the balcony and into the arms of his hysterical owner ME!!!! Of course the HOLE is closed up- no more of that!! I still thanked God-his angels took care of him. He ate and ate and drank and drank!!! You would have thought that he was gone a week!! I hope we do not have to take him to the cat whisperer!!! Bushy could not jump up to the hole because she is too fat-or she would have followed her brother!! God is GOOOOOD!!!
