One of my cats has been missing since this morning and I'm not coping at all. It's not like him - he goes out but only for an hour or so at a time. If it was the other cat, I wouldn't be so worried as he will often disappear for lengthy periods. Have been round all the neighbours and he would be hungry by now anyway, so would have returned for food if able. I'm hoping he is shut in a shed somewhere but can't help my mind wander to thoughts of him lying injured somewhere. It's also bloody freezing outside.
I am one of life's copers and in the last few years have had to watch and wait for my husband, mil and sil/best friend to die. While all that was seven shades of shite, I have been knocked for six by my stupid, dim cat not coming home. Dd has gone up to bed and I am sitting here hoping that he will turn up by tomorrow. Hope is a bastard cruel thing isn't it?
Anyway, please tell me your missing-cat-returns-and -everyone - lives- happily - ever -after stories.
