You don’t choose cats. They choose you.

My parents used to have a cat that did that. He’d rip open the duct work under the house, and then crawl through to get into the house. It took them ages to figure out how he was going in and out on his own. They didn’t realize a vent in the back bedroom didn’t have a cover, because it wasn’t finished.

3. well, you have a cat now.

Our old cat used to do this, if a plumber left a hole in the wall (or a drunk roommate kicked a hole in a wall) she would crawl in and we wouldn’t see her for a couple days, eventually she would emerge (from a hole in another part of the house, I should add) with a bunch of cobwebs stuck to her. Cats just do this. Adventure.

Yes, hopefully after checking if it’s chipped. That kitten looks to be in pretty good shape for a stray and feral cats tend to be more skittish.

Something similar happened to me. Deep into the winter, a cat with a croaky voice was suddenly in the floor heating vent like that, meowing and carrying on. When we removed the grate though, he got scared and retreated deeper into the vent. We left the vent open and he popped out over and over to get himself a snack and a drink and then would run back into the grate. I eventually caught him and held him for a bit, which convinced him not to be scared of me.

We named him Ear because his croaky voice sounded like that. Eeeeeeeeeearrrrrrrrrr eeeearrrr
