Bad pet parent

If Dorie the cat knew how to use the phone, I'm pretty sure she'd make a few calls and turn me in to PETA or maybe the Humane Society. My closet door was ajar this afternoon, so I closed it and didn't think too much about it. I worked, puttered around, took a long nap and then noticed a tail sticking out from under the door of the coat closet. Apparently Dorie had been locked in for several hours. You'd think my other cat would have given me some sort of heads up, but he's not the sharpest tool in the shed (this is the cat that chases his tail and wanders around the house frantically trying to find the rest of us not remembering he just saw us mere moments ago).
Today's thought for the day-- to respond or not to respond... I joined a free online dating site a while ago and haven't done much with it. Today I received a notice that I'd been contacted. Here's the message: hello your very nice looking and can we chat sometime my email is handyman107@. At first I was put off by the lack of punctuation and general grammar issues in his short message. Then I noticed his email address seems to indicate that he could be handy. I could certainly use the help of a handy man. Hmmmm... maybe he deserves a chance.
