Missing and it's my fault

I went out on Wednesday and had a great night with two friends. When I came home, my cats Vixen and Ghost ran outside. They're both indoor cats, since Ghost broke her leg a few years back and had to have it amputated.

I remember being sat on the pavement across the road trying to get Vixen in and managing it. I'm not sure why I didn't get Ghost in. She is fast and harder to coax, so maybe that was why.

I wasn't ridiculously drunk but I do tend to get missing memories weirdly only once I get home, possibly due to my meds, which is why I can't remember why I didn't stay outside till Ghost let me catch her. She's been missing ever since. I've done all the usual things, posted all over SM, gone looking for her and cling at various times of day and night, put a cushion she loves outside so she can smell home. I've even put a big poster in my window with photos of her so people will see it. There's a park at the bottom of the road so I'm hoping lots of people will walk past and take note. I'm so sad without her, she was going through a really snuggly stage although she has always been one of the sweetest cats. I feel so guilty, why didn't I stay outside instead of just thinking she'd come back when she felt like it (happened once before but she was back the next day) If she's been hurt or killed then it's my stupid fault.

I don't know why I'm posting this. I think maybe it's cause you don't know me and I feel too guilty and embarrassed to tell my friends. I just want my little cat back, safe and well, but the longer it takes, the more I think I won't see her again 😢
