Kotatsu* Smokey

I put Smokey in the walk-in closet during the move. Not for the whole move, just when the movers brought in the furniture and boxes. He meowed woefully at his plight at first but quieted down after a while. Also, I swear, every time one particular mover walked in, I would hear Smokey let out a sad yowl.

When I finally opened the door to let Smokey out, he was nowhere to be found. About a minute into freaking out about where a cat could possibly have gone in a completely enclosed space and whether one of the movers had opened the door, Smokey emerged from the pile of bed linens stuffed into the back corner of the closet. 

*Kotatsu is in reference to Kotatsu Maru. A kotatsu is a low table with a blanket, sometimes with a heating source, to keep people warm at the table.
