Hey, don't let politics overrun you.

Make your arguments subtly, and constant.. They'll turn around eventually.

I'm sorry you had to go through this, my best wishes all is well.

Clean the house. Sparkling.

[john in missouri]

You speak wise words.

I'm not being facetious here, and I know what time it is, but did you try calling the cat? Mine are trained to come running at the sound of the word "treat" (guess why). If calling doesn't work (or is verboten due to 4:30 AM), try tapping a spoon on the kitty's food dish. Nothing? Leave a dish of food on the porch for kitty. Something like tuna or other kitty yummy. Have the motion sensor light plugged in (if you have one) so it lets you know kitty's home.

Or: find a flashlight and shine it under your parked car, porch, crawlspace, etc. (and hope the neighborhood watch isn't TOO gung-ho). Kitty's eyes will reflect if she looks into the beam.

Last of all, are you SURE 100% that kitty is outside, lost? Did you look in ALL the places? I lost a cat for 4 hours until I found that he had sneaked into the pantry while it was open, climbed onto a shelf and fallen asleep. Try turning off lights and shining the flashlight again. Under beds - and up in the boxspring! - is a common location. So is up on a closet shelf. Under stairs or in basement windows or nooks is a favorite.

Sure hope you find kitty. Let me know!

For You

LOL!

You don't think that dusting, vacuuming and doing the laundry will be enough?

[riley1992]

Hahahahaha. Not a chance.

[riley1992]

You are the King of being in the dog house. Help this poor guy out, will you?

[xsmommy]

this from the guy that sleeps in the doghouse out back?

[Illbay]

Don't feel too bad.

I spent ten straight hours FReepin', then realized I'd left the baby in the car. Outside in the driveway. Temperature about 98 degrees.

Not to worry, though. I went out and got her as soon as I had finished uploading the latest email jokes from my brother.

I just KNOW no one else had ever heard them before.

[john in missouri]

Real funny.

For You

LOL

[Corin Stormhands]

Seek professional help while you can.

[john in missouri]

Hallelujah! The cat is back!

I left food out last night, which had disappeared by this morning, though I don't know whether it was our cat that ate it. Cat still nowhere to be found anywhere on property, so I left more food.

A little while ago I was in the house, heard a faint sound near the kitchen door -- then a very welcome "mew."

I have never been so glad to see a cat in my entire life. She really is the best cat I've ever known. Even though this is the first time I've ever been the cat-feeding person, I don't know how I could've forgotten the duty.

Many thanks for the support. Now I believe God answers prayer.

And yes, the dishes are all done. 8-)

[xsmommy]

clean the toilets for good measure....; )

[Corin Stormhands]

Congrats. Now keep her inside 'til the wife gets home!

[MotleyGirl70]

You should have gotten a pet moose, easier to find if lost.

I hope you find the little stinker.

Shake the kitty food box outside. That might lure her to come back. Or just put out a brick of CHEESE!

Maybe you should stick with a pet goldfish.

[Roscoe]

And yes, the dishes are all done.
