64. Two of our kitties used the bottom of the box spring for a hiding place after a move.

Nov 2015

They loved the boxing for the move, but hated the trip over. (we moved them first before getting the movers in, kept them in a spare bedroom during the whole event)

They were so traumatized by the trip in the car we didn't see them for a good week after the move was over, furniture set up, and the spare bedroom was finally opened. There was a blur of fur heading towards the master bedroom, and after a few hours of searching, we finally saw two ambulatory lumps of black and calico in the box-spring underside.
No amount of coaxing would get them out. Two large people sleeping on the bed didn't seem to phaze them at all. Even Friskies and bits of rotisserie chicken wouldn't get them out. There was evidence they sneaked out occasionally to use the litter box in the closet, but other than that, nothing.

However, Princess (the pixie-bob who loves car rides and walks on a leash) gained almost half a pound that week.
