The metro reports

A cat survived being accidentally being locked in a garden shed for two months - apparently by licking condensation off the windows.

Black-and-white Emmy - imprisoned when she followed her owner into the shed which he locked up for the winter - left tongue marks on the glass.

The 10-year-old pet was given up for for lost before her owner returned to the shed in Torbay, Devon, and found the skeletal cat inside.

As a sheddie and not a cat owner, I would have thought the shed would be the first place to check for a missing pet., or maybe thats because I always find a need to check the shed what ever the weather or time of year!

but the Daily Mail carries on the story, so looks like it may have been convenient for the owner? or maybe not?

A spokesman for the Blue Cross animal charity said Emmy’s former owners had reluctantly decided to give her up because they were so upset by the accidental distress they had caused.

“The family were just too upset to keep her,” said the spokesman. “They have also just moved house and were not sure their new home would be suitable for Emmy.”
