Absolutely beautifully wonderfully heart warming - but how did that teensie weensie little kitty end up inside the statue? (I hate to think someone put it there.)

In my experience, kittens get in to anywhere that they can, and some places that they can’t.

That kitten was so young, I don’t know if he could have gotten inside that statue by himself. Maybe mom left him in there and couldn’t figure out how to get him back out.

Cats can teleport (or they sure seem to be able to, anyway.)

Oh well, main thing is, it’s safe now. Wonder where its mother and brother and sisters are. I’m a worry-wart.

Good question. I’m leaning towards the teleport theory.

Seems reasonable.

We came to that conclusion some years ago after having a kitty escape from a closed carrier...and we found it still closed.

We had a kitten that somehow got inside the furnace. Fortunately it was summer and the pilot light was not on. They had to take part of the furnace apart in order to rescue her. Never could figure out how she managed to get inside. My mother was not happy and as I remember we didn’t have any more kittens after that.

I had a kitten vanish from a closed kitchen. I eventually found him napping in the sleeve of my jacket...after opening every cabinet and moving the fridge.

When I hear of missing kitties I think of the poem by Cowper

Nice that this story had a happy ending.
