“She meowed, then stared at the closet—I almost screamed when I opened it”: A first-time cat mom panics after a mysterious disappearance, only to discover a secret nest hidden in the closest corner of the house

The cat distribution system and feline rescues are often harrowing affairs, that take place in the cold wet night, which is ironic considering how much cats despise the cold and the wet, yet always seem to find themselves embroiled in some sort of action when the weather is so. But thankfully, today's story takes place entirely inside one household, which begs the question of how did the kittens get lost in the first place if they never left the house?

Well, we will tell you, not how it happened, but that this story stands as testament to the incredibly sneaky hiding powers of cat-kind and the lengths to which they will go to make sure that their litter is safe and sound. To the relief of the hooman pawrent, her cat momma gave up the location of her kittens rather easily and quickly, but those moments in between must have been a living nightmare.
