THE CAT

So my father-in-law has gone away for the weekend, so it is up to us to watch mom. I go to bed and leave my husband in charge, since it is his mother. He comes to bed a while later. I am wakened by noises in the kitchen. I wake up my husband and tell him that she is up. He says “dang it, I already put her back to bed three times.  A while later I hear her again, this time she is talking to herself. I see the back yard light go on, so I get up to see what she is doing. Her house cat that does not leave the house is running around the yard. I ask her how the cat got outside and she says that the woman she was talking to let it out.
