Spare Cats

by Tammy Jo, Arizona, USA

--------------

My Auntie had an open house one Saturday. She left explicit instructions with her realtor about keeping her doors to the outer halls in the building closed so the kitties couldn't get out. She also told her to call her when the open house was over. When the realtor finally called, Auntie asked if all the cats were accounted for. The realtor said yes. A black one, a white one and a gray one. She also told my Auntie that twice she had to shoo the white one back into the apartment because she found her on the stairs in the hall. She couldn't figure out how the cat got out, she was really careful with the door and telling people to watch for the cats. But everything was okay so she locked up and left.

Auntie comes home a few hours later and when she enters her place she sees her black kitty asleep on the couch, the gray one sitting by the door and 2......yes 2 white ones in the dining room. She looks at the 2 white cats and realizes neither one of them belong to her. She then sees her white kitty in the litter box in the bathroom. Turns out that the 2 spare white cats belonged to the owner of the upstairs condo. He lets them roam around on the landing and climb the stairs. The other tenants know he does this every once in awhile but Auntie didn't even think to tell the realtor. Everybody was just fine, no damage done however the spare cats did eat her kitties food and who knows, may even have fondled their toys! It gave everyone in the building a good laugh.
