Oh Kitty Where Art Thou

Thursday evening I had a friend over for dinner. Since it was a really hot day we decided to dine on the back deck. Little Kosha insisted on coming with us. I was a little hesitant at first as heard from her previous owner that she has always been an indoor cat. I finally gave in. Afterall, I would be outside to watch her and I have a six foot fence; during the time it would take her to scale the fence I could run over and grab her.
As we sipped our smoothies and chatted, Kosha sniffed around the yard but finally got so hot that she settled under the porch for shade. As I brought her water dish out only minutes later, NO KITTY! There was a small gap under the gate near the edge of the porch which must have been where she got out.
We looked for her for quite some time and I continued my search the next day, still no kitty! I live next to a large wooded area inhabited to coyotes so I was starting to wonder if she had perhaps become dinner. Afterall, only weeks ago a neighbor's cat had befallen that very fortune.
But alas, very early this morning I heard banging on the back side of the house. I thought it was the wind blowing stuff around on the porch but when I looked out the window there was no wind. As I went downstairs I could see a silhouetted figure hanging from the screen of the sliding glass door, there she was. Too bad she can't talk and tell me all about her grand adventure.
