Is Anyone Sleeping?

Some of you know about what happened the night Hurricane Milton came knocking on our door but I have not made a post about it. So in brief that night my cat Tish got so terrified by all the noise that when I went downstairs by the inner staircase connecting the two apartments she dashed after me, For a week until she recuperated she spent her time downstairs visiting with her mom Silky and two other younger female cats. Finally, my friend Nick got a hold of her and brought her upstairs. In the meantime, her brother Freddie was wondering what happened to her and was a bit off his feed. So he took all his love out on his human Mama and would sleep glued to my side, We also got some really brisk and cold weather at this time. Now that Tish is home both Freddie and I realize she is one ditzy cat. Totally out of this world. She raced through the apartment like a rocket, checked all the nooks and crannies, but pretty much ignored Freddie. Last night we settled down and Freddie was at my side as usual and Tish came flying on the bed and settled at the top of my pillows. It was not a quiet night and both cats kept waking me up with scratching and meowing etc. I don’t think any of us had a very good night’s sleep. Now I hope Tish has settled back to her routine and become the Greta Garbo of cats again and will “Vant to be alone” instead of crowding in on the bed. Just to remind you of who Tish is that is an older photo I took of her on the couch

@woldgirl569 Tish for the moment sleeps by the food and water dishes just to be sure she has enough

Sounds like the storm scared the crap out of her but she's now getting better.

@hillhjill I am praying such a storm does not come around again for a long time but I did remember both Freddie and Tish in separate incidents when afraid of something spending time in my closet. I think I might place them both in there with enough opening for air next time round,

I remember who Freddie and Tish are and I love this photo. I am no more often around, because I need to take care of my husband more and more.

@grenery8 she has always been like a loner and I refer to her as the Greta Garbo of cats who can't to be alone and she will always do what is best just for herself,

Seems Tish experienced some major trauma due to the hurricane, poor thing! Glad she was eventually brought back home and hopefully she'll settle back to her routine. She's lovely!

@somewitch Tish knows she looks like a queen and uses it to her advantage like batting against her brother Freddies head to push him back in case he gets the bowl with most food even though I feed them the same

They do get disoriented and disturbed by weather and such. I hope she gets back to "normal" soon.

Something like a tornado must be really traumatic for a sensitive cat. I hope the poor thing settles down soon.

@JudyEv I was just mentioning here that at separate times when things have scared them both Freddie and Tish have spent time in the closet, There are some cushions Tish was even sleeping on at one time, I am hoping for no more crazy storms but in case I will place them both in the closet,
