Yesterday afternoon, we had a visitor come into our section and have a look around, and a play. I have no idea where it came from or where it lives but I have a fair idea they are from down the road, which is where it eventually went off to. Anyway, here is the full story.

When Mum went downstairs to hang the washing on the line in the garage, she thought she saw a tail. Then she looked again and saw the cat. When the cat saw her, it decided to come inside the garage and started rubbing itself against her. She tried to get it to go away and go back home but it didn’t. Mum then proceeded with the washing and she climbed up hang it and the cat climbed up with her and then onto the car. Then she called my sister, but I ended up coming instead.

When I got downstairs, I saw the cat on the hood of the car and I told it to get down but it just looked. Mum was in the way so I couldn’t reach it so I got the cat off the car with metal pole. I wasn’t crewl I just tapped it gently on the legs and tried to push it lightly but it decided to climb onto the roof of the car. I could just reach it but I still used the pole and managed to get it off the car, via the boot, where it ran out the back door.

When it was out the back door, it was having a look for where it can climb up to. It was looking at the tree but saw there were no branches it coud climb to. It then decided to climb up the fence and it was going to jump into the neighbours section but I stopped it. It then started walking along the fence. At this stage, I went to get camera, and returned take pictures of it but it went along the fence and was on the fence of another property.

I tried to get its attention by making sounds and calling it but it just ignored. Then I meowed and it looked at me and started coming back. I managed to get some pictures which it was coming back. Then it was back onto our fence, it was looking for a way to get down and it started meowing. It then saw the black compost bin and jumped onto that and then onto the garden. I then tried to lead it back to the direction of its place and as I guided it behind the house and along the side of our section, it saw the other neighbours driveway and open gate and decided to go and visit them.

Unfortunately it was going home the wrong way so I failed at getting it back to it owners. I just left it but kept and eye out the window to make sure that if/when it does come out, it is okay and doesn’t get hit by a car. Shortly after, I saw it on the street chasing a duck or two and then sitting under a tree. A while more after that, it proceeded down the street towards it home. It was nice to have a visitor, especially one that was as interesting as this cat. Hopefully it made its way home safely.
