Part 1:
Well, Mel has been the source of much drama recently. Last week he escaped from the house in the middle of the night due to a pressure washing mishap. While we were getting ready for work, the house was calm and relaxed. When we got home from work the house was calm and relaxed, that is until it occurred to us Mel was missing. Carol was crying, I think Mel was too, because he had been out of the house for 12 hours or more. We rushed around the neighborhood alerting neighbors and asking them to call. Eventually, when we called from the backyard, he responded. We found him under a shed in the back neighbors yard, content and licking himself. I ran around the block with the cat carrier, but there was no way he was leaving the sanctuary of the shed crawl space. We left him there, checking periodically to see if he had come out or disappeared again. Before dark he came out, couldn't jump over the fence, and whined until we came to get him. Over the next two days, the only reason he stood was to walk to the food dish.
Part 2:
While part 1 wasn't all that endearing, it was exciting for him and for us. Part 2 on the other hand hasn't been endearing at all. Yep, you guessed it, he peed on the couch. We've gone through nearly an entire gallon bottle of enzyme cleaner trying to rid ourselves of the odor. While the smell has been reduced significantly, it does still linger and we are stuck trying to sit of half a sectional couch. These are the times that try men's souls.
Peace Out
