blueC, your cat story reminded me of another Madison story. I was in the huge apartment in the sky and got up for work one morning. I was half asleep as I stumbled into the kitchen. There was a door off the kitchen onto a really cool old balcony. I glanced at the door (just screen door, all windows up, it was nice weather) and saw Madison sitting out there. I was like "hey Maddy what's up...WTF?"
There was NO Way he could have been out there. I found out later his big self had knocked one of the window screens out, then he must have scaled the eaves and ended up on the balcony. He is definitely not the most graceful cat, so he and I were very lucky...it was a long way down, and there wasn't much room for him to walk.
