I'm so glad this story had a happy ending. I know from my own cat just how inquisitive they can be about places which are not normally accessible.

I've been given boxes of old records that I've come across in attics, which is great for an avid collector like myself. I also discovered an old 9-inch 1940s TV abandoned in an atiic some years ago -- Again a great find for a vintage equipment enthusiast!

Last year I found some dusty pages from a late 1940s newspaper, which made some interesting reading over my lunchtime sandwiches. One column was a story which had just emerged about a serviceman's bravery during WWII. Fascinating reading.

Less pleasant finds include tracing a horrible smell to the remains of a large rat, its jaws still around the 240V cable into which it had apparently bitten.
