Kittys Big Adventure
Yesterday evening Carol came from the front yard with a Kitten , squalling and Mewing , she had found it close to the road , by one of our wood piles .
we live in the sticks on a pretty busy road . She tried to give it some food and milk , no go , it just Mewed for its Moma , I noticed that it kept climbing up in the underside of my work truck ( remember this !!) It mewed All nite , but thankfully our bed room is at the other end of the house . this morning I didn't hear kitty so I assumed it had moved on in the nite , but just to make sure it didn't crawl up on my engine in the nite I opened the hood of my truck , no kitty . Just to make sure I got the hose and sprayed down the engine area and the under side of my truck , again No Kitty. I started up the truck , no nasty Clunk , backed up , saw No Kitty bits , and I figured he had moved on in the nite . as I was driveing down the road I saw no flying kitty , so all is good right ?? Well I had to drive about 1.5 2 hrs to a job , I stopped about , 20-25 minuets from the job to get a refill on my coffie , etc,,,, I heard Nothing on the way in so all is good , on the way out to my truck I hear MEW MEW MEW !!! . I looked ALL over saw Nothing . so I drove on , again No clunks , or flying body's . I Got to the job site , a dude was sitting and smoking out side the maint shop , I still heard the Kitty , so I started trying to Narrow down Where the sound was coming from , not the front , louder the closer I got to the rear of the truck . I squatted down looking in the rear wheel wells , by this time dude had come over to see what was up , I told him , we both started looking and calling , suddenly on top of my fuel tank this little gray head appeared saying MEW MEW MEW !! I Grabbed him , he clung on for dear life, as my hand got close to the ground it wriggled loose hit the ground and was like a Gray Streak Headed for the Maint shop !!! he and I laughed , Hell of a story !! A Little while later Another dude comes up and asks if he can have the SPECIAL cat , I ask if he will take care of it and he looks at me all serious " Thats a SPECIAL Cat to survive THAT trip !!!" I tell him if you can catch it its Yours , Just keep me updated on the Special Kitty !!! Kittys Big adventure !!!!

LOL, thanks for the story, I hope SuperKitty finds a nice home.
I tip my cap to you for caring about it to so carefully check your car before starting it. If you hear any updates, please share.

My kinfolks had a cat that has learned, the hard way, to resist the temptation of sleeping on soft warm freshly tumble-dried clothes that are still inside the tumble-drier; you never know when some human might toss another towel onto the pile, close the door, and press start!!!!
BRRRUUUM CLUNK MRIAWWW! CLUNK MRIAWWW! CLUNK MRIAAAAWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
