Well, after three days of keeping the cats in I've let them out again.
During that time Higgs hid in the laundry room, and eventually started peeing in a plastic box in their - I'm guessing she didn't want to interact with the other cats to the degree that once she'd found a box to jump in then that met her standards.
James didn't stop yowling to be let out the whole time.
Tesla was just Tesla.
When I let them out this morning James jumped off the balcony onto the roof of the car and ran off, Higgs jumped onto the car and spent a long time just looking around, and Tesla stayed on the balcony.
I suspect (but have no evidence) that James has gone off to Thief of James house, which makes me cross.
Friends have heard Thief of James calling for him/calling him in- he's not their cat.
So, I am now looking for someone who will look after James, possibly for good - away from here.
I don't believe that the cat thieves should profit from this, but I don't want to make James unhappy.
I'll try my parents first, but I suspect that they won't want the complication.
