I need to start making better sure of the doors in the house. Bat Cat got out again and now he's been out almost 24 hours in the snow, and while the rest of the cats are safe and they're the ones I'd be more worried about if they were out -- Bat Cat is a feral and he's never entirely been comfortable with the idea that he's confined to the house instead of being an indoor-outdoor cat -- and I'm sure he knows his way back if he wants to come back, but I'm still worried and I miss him and I want him to come home. The patio is open and there's food on it and the interior doors are closed so more cats don't get out, and he knows the layout of the house, so, hopefully.
(Although I'm still not entirely sure he didn't figure out how to open the utility room door on his own. Reasonably sure. But I know he knows where the lock is and I'm pretty damn sure he knows how it works.)
Ugh. Every time one of the cats goes on an explore because I didn't secure a door I feel like the worst kind of cat momma.
Other than that my day's been a struggle of getting through with little sleep and a stuffy head. Woke up in the middle of the night last night for an hour, again, which may be a result of not taking melatonin, might be a result of this damn cold, I don't know and I'm not going to experiment this week. This week started out crappy enough without experimenting with things that may or may not wake me up in the middle of the night.
