I dashed outside, no shoes, she went into a thick stand of raspberry bushes. then when I made my way to the front and she was sitting on some stuff stored there. she sat for a minute, but then back under the deck. I went back into the house, closed up the dog and cat flaps in my room, grabbed a particularly stinky cat food. I dropped bits of it between the stand of bushes and gate. the can itself is sitting very close to the door. of course I had to come into work. I only have another hour left. I'm certain that as she has appeared close to the house and was maoing like mad, she is finished with her adventure. If she doesn't come quickly/easily I'll put Strider in his harness and we'll go out together. He was maoing like a crazy man when I left. he knows she's out there.

Oh, good. The good news is she is back and clearly would like back in. Now it's just a matter of allowing her to come back while maintaining her dignity and letting it be clear she only does it because she
chooses to.
