Our childhood pet was a cat named Snowball whose two special tricks were hiding behind the refrigerator and disappearing for weeks on end. Sometimes we would think that Snowball was hiding behind the refrigerator, and then it would be a couple of days, and we would start worrying that Snowball had died behind the refrigerator, and then a week later she would show up and be mad that there wasn't food waiting for her
