AreTooooo...!

Oh, dear. The human has had a teh stressful day. This morning, not long before she had to leave for a doctor appt, AreToo and the human were involved in a collision: the human stepped out of the bathroom just as AreToo raced down the hallway - BANG! AreToo ran right into the human's leg! This has happened before and was no big deal, but this time AreToo ran under the bed and would not come out. The human went to get the flashlight, but by the time she got back to the bedroom, Aretoo was gone. The human waited for his reappearance in an ever increasing state of panic. Finally she got out the laser toy, hoping that AreToo would want to join the game. And he did. But when the human tried to pick him up, he ran back up to the attic. Stricken, but believing he must be at least 99.9% ok, the human left for her appointment and work. Anxious all day, she hurried home to find him in the hallway, but again when she went to pick him up he disappeared up the attic stairs. He did (why doesn't italicize work?) come down for FancyFeast, and (picture the italics) did let the human pat him while he ate, but he's still avoiding her right at the moment, which she finds devastating. Hmmmm. Go get some fresh catnip leaves and run them all over myself. It (italics) could work... We'll see.
