Yet Another Cat

Here's Tripper, named for his unfortunate habit of tripping people. We found him in really cold weather at the school where my husband teaches. He was a tiny kitten, hiding in an air conditioner pipe. I tried for hours to catch him, but he finally caught me! He got into the motor of the Suburban. I couldn't get the hood open--faulty catch, and so was trapped at the school! I had a rehearsal that night, for which I was late. A man came by, and helped me open the hood. I whisked Tripper into the waiting cat carrier, and he went to my rehearsal with me.
