Gather ‘round, gather ‘round, for I have a tale to tell of this little fucker known as #FrancisBegbieCat. 
We get home at about 1:50am. Houdini and Salty are hanging about hoping for treats, but there‘s no sign of Begbie, even though he *loves* food.
Shaking the treat box usually brings him running, but there‘s nothing this time. No sound, no sign. We call him, check cupboards, look under the sofa, under the spare bed. Nothing whatsoever. At all.
At this point we think he might have slipped out the flat while the front door was opened when someone was going out, or coming home. So I go wandering about our condo complex, shaking the treat box and calling him name.
This is all around 2am, by the way.

I check the stairwell. I check the ground floor of the compound. I check the lift. I check the basement car park. I look in the little hedges. I call and call and shake the treat box.
When all that fails I go to security and ask them to play me CCTV footage.

Meanwhile, my husband is searching the stairwell (again) *and* the flat, trying to think of all the places #FrancisBegbieCat could be.
Zilch.
Zilch.
Finally, my husband lies down on our bed... and hears the slightest rustling from the corner.
Francis fucking Begbie fucking Cat is in the little space between the curtain, the railing by the window, and the nightstand.

THE FACE OF A RATBAG FELON
He’s now prowling the flat like nothing happened.

During all this, Houdini managed to eat both his *and* #FrancisBegbieCat’s portions of treats, so at least *someone’s* the winner in this tale.
I’d checked the curtains but hadn’t seen him at all, and he made NO SOUND. Goodness knows what the hell he was up to then

Not even a little bit sorry
At least he knows how to take a wefie, unlike big brother Houdini
