I have a strong stomach but even I quail at the thought of a face-full of kitty vomit. I sat straight up and looked around (it's dark, remember, and she's a black cat so she blends well in shadows...)and she wasn't on the bed. The sounds increased with the inevitable "hork and splat" conclusion and I fumbled around with my bedside light so I could investigate and clean it up. I found - nothing.

I decided I'd dreamt the entire incident and went back to sleep. This morning, in the act of racing through my morning routine so I could head out the door, I found the puke. In my shoe. And yes, by "in" I bloody well mean in my shoe. Yuck. Leave
