casper Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Well I had a close call this morning. I was sat having a cuppa in the room when Charlie was startled by the post man.As always, he took flight and as a lot of you will know after his accident he is not very good at flying and can only go in a straight line very quickly as well. I went into the kitchen where he normally lands on the floor, and where was he? He was stuck with his head out the catflap with just his back end in the house! My god did I panic, I rushed in and scooped him up and brought him back in. Who would have thought this could happen? You bird proof your house, keep your windows and doors shut for means of escape outside but never would I have thought to lock the cat flap. The more I think about it now I see it does have a funny side as well but when I think how close he came to being outside it dosent bear thinking about! So to anyone else with a catflap, make sure its locked as the strangest things CAN and do happen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judygram Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Gosh I never thought a grey would try to go thru one of those cat flaps but I guess its the first time for everything, better keep that thing locked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessdecutie18 Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Lol, we don't have cats but I never would have thought that could happen! Thanks for the tip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JillyBeanz Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 You would never in a million years think that they would figure that one out as an escape route - Charlie's had his eye on the cats!! Thank goodness things were okay though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvparrots Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 So happy Charlie is okay! That would be totally scary! Thanks for the heads up on this danger to our fids!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pearllyn Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Goodnes what a fright - I'll bet you moved fast! Is it not possible, if he's not very good at landing, that he crashed into the flap rather than tried to climb out? Either way - yikes! thanks for sharing. x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
