Hmm.. thats true... 2 dogs would have alerted to the meowing.So they have a Ring camera system installed and were up until the wee hours and they didn't think to check it before they went to bed? Did the dogs not hear the meowing? My dogs go apeshit at any sound they hear.
I wonder if Nala got out..at one time..in the past... Asshat caught it on the ring doorbell and saved footage ... and used it when he was in need of content....and the whole episode of Nala getting out, the emotional tears.. Asshat presenting Nala to Pig..was all just content?
