Was redoing the floors in one my rooms, I had all the air vent covers off. Guess where the cat decided to go?
Was like the god damn scene from poltergeist where you could hear it all over the house but didn't know where exactly the meows orginated from echoing through the ductwork.
I forgot how I coaxed it to an exit, but I do recall grabbing it by the scruff and yanking it out as the cat tried to scamper back in. Went to go clean-up my scratches and the damn thing knocked over what I blocked the vent with and squeezed back in.
At that point I was tempted to just turn on the furnace heat and call it a day. But didn't want to deal with the stink.
Should have put a second cat in there to chase the first one out
May even nedd a third or fourth.
