Excali-purr! Cat Found In Hotel Room On Las Vegas Strip
Was the cat included in the resort fee? That’s probably what Lindsey Sanders was thinking after checking into her Las Vegas hotel room.
It’s a long story of love, loss, and hairballs. A couple weeks ago a guest at the Excalibur Hotel and Casino reported their cat missing. The guest, who moved from Reno to Las Vegas, told hotel security but unfortunately the kitty went unaccounted for.
About a week later, enter Lindsey Sanders and her husband. The pair had checked into their hotel room, laid down and got some shut eye. Then, in the middle of the night… “meow”.
They woke up to be greeted by the cat who magically appeared in their room. She immediately whipped out the camera and captured the loving feline for her TikTok account, @vetmedsanders.
Once they saw the cat, things started making more sense. A bottle on the counter was knocked to the ground. There was pee in the shower. She blamed it all on her husband who denied everything. Turns out… he wasn’t lying.
What happened to this cool Las Vegas cat?
The cat kept pretty tidy considering. They think the kitty survived no food for nearly a week by drinking water from the toilet. The pair, who are veterinarians ironically, called hotel security.
Turns out the kitty found itself a nice little hiding spot in the room, which is why it went unaccounted for during the initial search. A crawl space underneath the sink, tiny as could be, is where the cat set up shop. How do they know? Because when hotel security was there to take a gander at the situation, the cat bugged out back to its hiding spot. Security took apart the sink counter to get to the kitty, put it in a crate, and reunite it with their owner.
We hereby rename the cat Excali-purr.
