Which is worse? Hearing the cat retching in the night and waking up find it has thrown up on something precious, like, say, a book? Or waking up to find no signs of cat vomit whatsoever?
I reckon the latter. Because the chances are that the spew is still knocking around somewhere, just waiting for you to put your shoes on or change your bed sheets or something — something that reminds me of my own missing organic matter mystery: my lost and still not found tub of olives.
However, if the upchuck really has vanished, then perhaps the feline has become hungry in the night and, having realised that there is no way it can blag more food out of the monkey before dawn, eaten the pre-eaten catfood. What? You think they don't do that sort of thing? Sure, they might act all hoity-toity in front of the primates, but when hominid backs are turned and good nutrition is going to waste, it's a different story altogether...
