Mourning The worst day

My cat was let out of the house two days ago and we haven’t seen her since. We live in the mountains, two blocks away from a big meadow that is home to dozens of coyotes. Whenever I see a lost cat poster around here I hang my head down low, and feel sorry for that family and their kitty they will likely never see again. Now it’s me hanging up the almost hopeless lost cat flyers. I’m still hoping for a miracle.

Every time I fall asleep I dream about finding her, and when I wake up my heart breaks all over again.

Her sister is sad and confused, and very much not okay. This is horrible.

We cancelled our holiday vacation that was supposed to start tomorrow. We are too heartbroken, and we couldn’t possibly leave our other cat on her own.

I lost my cat same way my friend left my door open. It ended up taking 2 to 3 months to find him. He was in the neighbors yard and in between our fences. He was ok thin but ok. The neighbor happened to openna Birthday card that had an audio clip that plays Happy Birthday in meows and ym cat responded to the meows. I am keeping my hopes up for you I am so sorry this has happened keep searching and dont lose hope.!

wow what a story, about the meowing card. Stinky is a very responsive cat, when I say her name she always meows or comes over to me. Hopefully she hears something worth responding to. thank you for your kind words.
