Breaking News: Otis Found!

By on August 9, 2010 8:29 pm in Brooklyn Heights

I am pleased to report that the formerly lost Otis, has been found!  As only a cat can do, Otis decided to go into a part of the carriage house that no one ever enters.  Other than being a little skinny, Otis is perfectly okay and is very happy to be back with his parents.

Thank you everyone in the BHB community for keeping a keen eye.  Now if we can just find some cooler weather, things would be great!

    No doubt St. Gertrude of Nivelles (who has the misfortune to share her feast day with the much better known St. Patrick) had a hand in this.

    Excellent news!

    I once rescued my “lost” cat from under–and I mean under–a refrigerator in a burned-out apartment, He was skeletal, I was ecstatic.

    Good news indeed! This is the second recent incident of a “lost” cat found hiding at home. In my experience it is not unusual for an out-of-sorts cat to disappear.

    Welcome home Otis! Was it cooler in the carriage house or did it just have a better class of mice?

    Glad Otis is back, but I do think that he did escape your home. My Yorkie Pepper had spied a cat that bears strong resemblance to Otis in the Grace Churchyard. You may want to check if Otis doesn’t have a secret passageway out of your carriage house.

    So glad to read that OTIS- is back home- safe and abit thinner- please make sure that there are no hidden areas, that your Otis can hide into. They seem to find them all.
    I emailed also my cousin in the heights to keep an eye out- Yes, pray to St Patrick. Luck cat he is.

    Big Thanks to Everyone for help and good wishes. Otis is home and enjoying life! Thanks again! I will post a pic of him relaxing in the window looking over the Alley.

    The entire episode just proved how wonderful a community our beloved Brooklyn Heights really is, with a lot of concern shown by many of our neighbors. Otis you rock for turning up and relieving us of our worries!

    Has this been confirmed? I noticed the “lost” signs are still up around the neighborhood.

    Otis is definitely back home. I received a e-mail yesterday from one of his owners.

    @ T.K. Small Thanks for confirmation. That is great news.

    – Shouldn’t the owners remove all the posters from around the neighborhood now?

    I will do another sweep through the neighborhood…I thought I got all of them.
    Again, thanks!
