Not ONLY did she take up residence in my mother-in-law's suitcase, she then proceeded to hiss and spit at anyone who came near her, until I had to go in and drag her out, growing and snarling the whole way.
I had the following conversation with my mother this afteroon Mum: Lisa has a cat, just like yours! Me: Yeah? Mum: Yep! She was sleeping on my bed and when I went to pat her she stretched out just like yours! Me: Yah huh... Mum: And then I patted her, and she cuddled up to my hand.... And then the bugger bit me and mauled my hand! Just like yours!
Let's face it, we are heading into the "silly season" and most of us will be tempted at some time to climb into a small space and grumble at anyone who dares to come near. Sekhmet is just ahead of us two legged ones.Clever girl!
I'm currently a stay at home mother, freelance writing on my off time, wondering how I became part of the ten thousand year old tradition of raising the kids while creating textiles.
I grew up in NE Ohio dairy country, married a sailor, lived in Hawaii ten years, lived in SC for five years, then moved back to culture shock and confusion.
Nothing but good times ahead.

The cat...she wants to travel! Everyone gets the urge to see the world once in a while, right?
She wanted to go home for a holiday with Grandma!

Apparently it's the season for cranky cats!
You could have left her in the suit case. Do you think the in-laws would have noticed before they got home?

hey if I was comfy, I'd hiss and snarl if you tried to move me too!
Did you ask your MIL what animal she had been seeing behind Sekhmet's back? She sure smelled something tasty!!!
Why is it YOU that has to drag the evil fucker hissing and snarling out of the suitcase?
