She thought she found the perfect hiding spot, playing hide and go seek. My cat, Sassy, makes me laugh every day. She finds the funniest places to hide where she thinks she is invisible and I pretend that she is. I will walk throughout the house calling, “Sassy… Sassy, where are you?” She loves this game and I have fun playing with her.
Of course, she prefers to be outside hunting birds and other prey but on snowy or rainy days when she can’t go outside, we play hide and go seek. If her eyes are hidden, she thinks she is hidden. She is just too funny.

Sassy sounds gorgeous – you’ll have to put up a photo of her PJ!
Thank you! She went missing 2 years ago and I haven’t been able to find her. It broke my heart.
Oh no! That must have been terrible. You can only hope that someone kept her..
Yes, I hope they did, except that she was a type of cat that was ferrel around everyone but me. If they took her then they took her to be a barn cat because she is such a good hunter. It was very sad for me because I loved her so much.
its really sad when pets go missing like that – the not knowing what happened is the worst part.. do you have another cat now?
No. My little dog is getting elderly and I have decided not to adopt another pet while she is living. Which I hope is at least three or four more years. (She is 13)
well so long as she’s still in good health and happy – my cat is 16 this year. He doesn’t move as quickly as he used to, but still has plenty of spirit!
She seems to be doing pretty good. She sleeps a lot but seems to be feeling pretty good. She is the type of dog that needs to be the only dog because she is a resource protector. That’s wonderful that your cat is doing so well. Cats seem to live longer than dogs.
I think its his breed as well – a guy I worked with once had a Birman who lived to 18, which is very old for a cat.. its just hard when pets start to grow old isn’t it? they’re our babies afterall 🙂 I wish your puppy a long and healthy life ahead of her!
Thank you and I wish that for your cat.
🙂
Nice cute story
Thank you!
fun cat, Sassy! 🙂
Yes, she was! Thank you!
Sweet story! So, she keeps you busy. 😉
Yes, she use to. She went missing 2 years ago and I haven’t been able to find her. It broke my heart.
Oh, so sad. I think you had mentioned it in your earlier posts. Is it the same one – stolen, I guess.
Yes, the same cat. 😦
Some people are too miserable and fail to show kindness to other beings. Someone had poisoned my dog when I was kid. It was a lovable dog.
That’s so sad Norma! I hate to hear about that kind of stuff. People can be so mean and ugly.
Everything I’ve heard about cats leads me to believe Sassy is playing with ‘you’ and seeing how long she can get you to go around saying “Sassy”. 🙂 Fun story Priceless! 🙂
Yes, she did! You are absolutely right Colleen!
😉 Cats are wily !!
Yes, they are!
Unfortunatley for you it looks like Sassy found a place a good place to hide 😦
Cute story of your fun times.
I don’t think she would purposely hide from me for that long. Something has happened to her and it breaks my heart. As much as she loved me, I’m sure it broke her heart too. Thank you so much for reading and commenting. 🙂
This is a hilarious photo prompt. Very nice cat story! It made me smile thinking about a cat playing hide and seek! Can your cat really do this?
Yes, she really did that kind of stuff. She was a riot! She went missing about 1 1/2 – 2 years ago and I haven’t been able to find her. I think she was stolen because she was such a beautiful cat and such a great mouser.
What a great cat! I hope nothing terrible happened to her.
I hope that too. I prefer to think of her as being stolen to be a barn cat than the alternative – which is being eaten by a coyote or fox.
Such a sassy cat! 🙂 I loved your story Pat! Cats sure do love to play! Scrappy loves the laser light and has become a mad cat over it. He hides and then pounces on the light circle. Be well my friend and thanks for another great story. Be well… ^..^
Thanks Barb! You be well too. 🙂
Thanks!
So sorry you lost her but wonderful you hve good memories of her. May you find peace in her memory!. Lovely story!!
Thank you so much!!
Good story. Sassy sounded like a very cute cat. Cats can be so funny. Cleo ignores me most of the day sleeping in her strawberry house in my room but around 1 am she wanders over to be petted and made over before I go to bed. 🙂
She was a fun cat! I really miss her. Your cat sounds awesome!
I remember you writing about Sassy before, and it is shame when pets go missing. Despite her feral nature. she sounded like a lovely little cat.
She was. I thought she was anyway. Thank you Francesca!
A sweet story, PJ. 🙂 Sassy sounds like a lovely cat.
Thank you Louise! Yes, she was a fun cat.
Just like a little kid covering their eyes and thinking no-one can see them! Sassy sounds like fun.
Thanks Ali! She was!
Lovely story PJ ~ A priceless cat indeed~ Sassy and sweet ~
Thank you John! 🙂
Sorry to hear that Sassy is lost. Sweet description of you and her playing.
Thank you so much!!
Cute story, Joy. I used to play with a cat we owned once. She would come from the diningroom stalking me when I was on the livingroom couch. She’d climb up behind me and bat me in the head. Cats can be such characters. Well done. 😀 — Suzanne
She sounds like she was a fun cat!
Thank you. 🙂
