I had just moved to Fort Collins, Colorado with my cousin Josh, whom I shared our apartment with. He had already lived there for some time, but he picked me up in Arizona to go live with him as I was having a hard time adjusting to the current life events that had taken place.
I was sitting in the livingroom watching TV while waiting for him to get home from a date he had that night. I got up to go to the bathroom, did my business and walked out. To the right of the bathroom was his bedroom and his cat 'Kitty' was lying on the bed, sleeping as usual. I petted her for a minute then went back out to the living room to watch more TV, letting Kitty go back to sleep. As soon as I sat back down out of the corner of my eyes I saw something moving in the kitchen. We had the kind of trash can where the lid had a swinging door on the top of it. Kind of hard to explain the mechanical feature of it, but I'm sure you have an idea. Well what I saw moving was the door on the top of the lid twilrling around in a continuous non-stop circle. It first dawned on me that it was just Kitty, but then I remembered she was asleep on the bed. Now the panic set in.
I grabbed my shoes and ran out of the apartment. Well, stupid me forgot that it was winter outside and it would have been nice to grab a jacket, too. I stood outside on the balcony for a good 20 minutes before I was freezing cold. His blinds were partially open and I could see Kitty still sleeping on the bed. I then knew for a fact she wasn't the one messing with it. Since I couldn't get ahold of Josh on his phone I had to muster up the courage to go back into the apartment and grab some warm clothes. When I opened the door I piled a bunch of stuff in front of it so it didn't close on me while I was in there. Got my stuff, got out and went to the gas station down the street to hang out until Josh called me back. When he finally did I told him about my experience and he got home pretty quick.
Nothing happened to me after that in that apartment, but he did tell me about some experiences he's had in there. Could have hit him for not telling me about it before! Man I was a sissy!
