Ghostly Cat

In September of this year, my fiance and I adopted a beautiful female kitten. She's black, white, and ginger. I believe she's a Calico and Rag Doll mix. She has the most playful and loving personalities in a cat I've ever seen and is basically just a little bundle of pure joy.

Anyway, after a few weeks of her living in her new home and us getting used to having a kitten around, me and my fiance began seeing another cat.

For our kitten's own safety we put her in the sitting room at night with all her toys, some food and water, a bed and a litter tray and we check on her throughout the night too just to make sure she's okay. She's normally asleep on the sofa, snoozing in her little bed or playing with her toys, or just plain getting up to no good as kittens usually do. That being said, we now know it wasn't our kitten that we were seeing.

I was woken one night by what felt like a cat jumping onto the bottom of the bed and walking over my legs/feet. I sat up a little and looked to see what I thought was our kitten as it was rather small and white. It then jumped off the bottom of the bed and went towards the other end of our room. I promptly woke my fiance up and told him that the kitten had somehow gotten out of the sitting room. Well, we checked and checked and checked our room but couldn't find any sign of a cat whatsoever and when we went down to check on our kitten she was still in the sitting room minding her own business, with the door still firmly closed. I couldn't explain it and my fiance said I must have dreamt it which I know for a fact that I didn't because whatever it was, woke me up out of a deep sleep in the middle of the night.

I kept on seeing what I thought was our kitten on and off out of the corner of my eye for a few more days after that incident but nothing quite as direct. My fiance, however, had an encounter of his own a few days later.

We were getting ready for bed one night and my fiance was standing in our bedroom doorway putting on his pj bottoms when he suddenly turned around and clear as day saw a cat sitting there watching him, thinking it was our kitten he went to pick it up and ask her what she was doing out of the sitting room and how she had gotten out, not that she could have told him anyway, when he realized it wasn't actually her. Before he could even speak, the misty white cat as he explained it ran off rather quickly down the landing away from our room and disappeared into nothing.

We haven't seen anything of it since and can't explain any of it.
