We hope your cat comes home all right Es. She still hasn't turned up. I am going to start calling around the vets and animal shelters. She has a tattoo in her ear, so I would have thought they would have called if they had her though. :( Reality Internet Personality |

Not the update I was hoping for, but I'll keep you both in my thoughts and prayers as you search. "Time is simply the mechanism that keeps everything from happening all at once." ![]() |

I hope Sauron turns up soon Es. Search has been delayed because my son got hit by a car this morning. He is ok, just bruised, but we are still at the hospital. I was going to ask the lady who ran over my son if she'd hit my cat too. Reality Internet Personality |

I hope Sauron turns up soon Es. Yikes-glad he's ok. I think that would be a legitimate question to be honest. ![]() ![]() |

I hope Sauron turns up soon Es. He's fine. We are just bored, but the Drs and nurses are being very nice. Some people here are having way worse days than we are. :( Reality Internet Personality |

Oh goodness, best wishes from us.... We made it back from the hospital and spent the afternoon making missing cat posters and calling around the animal shelters. No sign of kitty yet. :( At least my boy is ok though. Reality Internet Personality |

Esme, I am so happy that your little guy is ok. The doctor has given him a note for 5 days off school, so he is happy. I just hope my little kitty makes it back safe. I've certainly got some new grey hairs today. When the lady phoned to tell me she'd hit my son and she was at the hospital I thought she was telling me that she'd hit the cat and she was at the vet. It took a moment to sink in that she was saying 'son' not 'cat'. That is the point when I freaked out. Reality Internet Personality |

Meowsigh.... I had Sauron kitty in my thoughts all day at work, and was hoping for some good news tonight when I returned home. Certainly never expected the news here..... Glad that your son is OK, ES. And still sending my best energies your way that little Sauron makes her way home soon and safely.

Es99 I am glad your son is ok as well. Your car can be repaired or replaced but your son can't. Having 5 days off school indicates he was banged around pretty good but I am sure you will see that he isn't missing any lessons. Have you broke that bad news to him yet? |

Es99 I am glad your son is ok as well. Your car can be repaired or replaced but your son can't. Having 5 days off school indicates he was banged around pretty good but I am sure you will see that he isn't missing any lessons. Have you broke that bad news to him yet? It wasn't my car that did the damage, my son was cycling to school and a mum dropping her daughter off pulled out of a side alley right into him knocking him off. The police showed me a picture of her car and there is quite a ding on the bumper. I haven't actually looked at his bike yet, I know the police took pictures of it though. All the nurses and doctors kept saying that he must be happy to miss school, but he likes school! So not so happy. I have promised him that I am sure his teachers will let him take any tests he has missed when he gets back. @everyone else, thank you for the kind wishes about my boy and my kitty. There is still no sign of the kitty and we are all very upset. It is very strange because she was playing so happily outside on the day she disappeared. I still have an image of her jumping around trying to catch butterflies and flies. She is a very joyous cat. Usually she comes in for an afternoon nap, but she didn't that day. We live a couple of houses down from an elementary school, so there are lots of parents picking up and dropping off and it gets very busy, I have seen some appalling driving. I am hoping that no one hit her, what I do suspect is that someone saw her playing and took her home, perhaps thinking she was a stray. People do strange things sometimes. Hopefully if that is the case they will see all the signs we have put up and bring her home. Either that or she has curled up for her nap in someone's shed and got trapped. Worst case scenario is that the Coyotes got her, but I haven't seen many in our street lately and they don't usually come around in the busy day time. We think she is too big for an eagle to have got her, and she is a very good climber so she would have an excellent chance of getting away from any other predators. So my thought is that people are involved, in which case she may well be quite happy and safe somewhere. Reality Internet Personality |
