It is early Saturday morning, the only day we can sleep in during the week. Michelle has risen to make coffee and breakfast. I was lounging in bed when I heard her say, "How did they do that!" She had found one of the floor grates off, exposing the vent below. I hear her counting the cats as I continue to lay there. Next, I hear her counting the cats again, and she calls out that a cat is missing! I am now awake and up! She starts to shake the cat treats to entice the missing cat out of its hiding place. We quickly realize that Scrappy is somewhere in the vents! Did she get stuck? Will she come to the opening? After a few frantic minutes, we hear something under the floor. Michelle opens another vent and gets a peek at some fur. She reaches down and is able to grasp the scruff of her neck. She slowly pulls her up and out of the vent. Scrappy is fine, but did not like being down there. Once she was out and safe, the vents were blocked off until we could install new duct covers to the floor. We do not want a repeat of this again!
