Kitten’s Escape Thwarted by Paralyzing Fear of Outside

Kitten’s Escape Thwarted by Paralyzing Fear of Outside

A local kitten’s daring escape was thwarted earlier today by what appears to have been a paralyzing fear of the outside. Once Henry the cat had cleared the front door, witnesses say his eyes grew very wide and he became very still.

“Then a twig snapped,” recounted on witness, “and he bolted under the front steps.”

It took authorities and crisis counselors two hours two hours to coax Henry from his hiding place, but he is now safe at home, resting with his family.
