Who Shut the Closet Door?

I never shut the door to the closet in this room (my office). It's always
ajar at least 5 inches. That closet is Persia's hidey-hole and nap spot.
She loves to snooze on the plush rolled-up comforter in this closet. She
disappeared for a few hours so I assumed she was napping on said comforter.
I just came back into the room after doing chores around the house. She was
meatloafing in front of the *closed closet door*! Wha??? Who shut the
closet door? Poor baby! I opened it and she immediately sidled in and
settled on HER comforter for a proper snooze :)

Tell Persia that Yoda says it could always be worse. He sneaks in the
coat closet every time he catches it open, and I am forever shutting
the door and not knowing he is in there!

Rusty has no problem with my sliding closet doors. He knows how to
open them to go
in and out as he pleases. He even opened the cabinet under the kitchen
sink and went inside The doors slammed shut behind him, but he could
push them open when he was ready to come out.

When Persia first claimed me I didn't realize her affinity for closets. She
was in there and I shut the door. I did think it was odd she didn't join me
on the bed that night since she was in the habit of doing that from *day
one*! But I didn't think too much about it. However, the next morning when
I couldn't find her, I went around the place calling for her. I finally
heard a small meow and realized I'd shut her in the closet without knowing
it! The closet door has remained ajar ever since. But she didn't really
seem to mind; she was simply responding to my running around calling for her

I had a problem with Persia when she first came here. My washer & dryer are
behind folding metal doors in a hallway between my office and my 2nd
bathroom. I had left one door open one day and she hopped up on the washing
machine and then jumped down between the washer and the wall. And she
couldn't get back out. I had to move the washer out - not an easy feat! -
and get Persia out of there. For the longest time I'd find her still trying
to open those metal doors. I finally took to wrapping extra-long
extra-thick rubber bands around the knob handles of both doors to keep them
from opening. She finally gave up. Thank goodness!

Rusty likes to hide behind my stacked washer and dryer too. I have
quite a gap between them and the wall. I can barely get in there. If I
want to chase him out, I have to use a broom. The W&D are in my storage
room with sliding doors, which he has no problem opening. One time my
cat-sitter spent an hour looking for him while he hid inside the
storage room. I thought of getting child proof devices for the doors
but never get around to it. The only sliding doors Rusty can't open are
the glass doors of the atrium, aka Rusty's room.

Well, I KNOW who was guilty last night when I got so involved in my
writing and the Yankees game that I didn't notice that I had put my
cloth bag full of stuff on Wootoo's computer chair, so she couldn't
supervise me as she usually does. She let me know about it though; she
chirps before she yowls so it isn't unpleasant if I am not tardy in
responding. Then I put the cloth bag on the dresser and she assumed the
throne.

I washed my summer blanket and when I took it out of the dryer, I hung it
over the back of a chair in the computer room. You guessed it! When I
went into the room later, it was on the floor with a big, fat cat sleeping
on it. MLB
