The most heartbreaking part of this holiday is that our beloved 10 year old cat Neko was lost in the blizzard last Saturday and has not been seen since. We walked around to the neighbors, gave out "lost cat" flyers, checked out possible hiding spots, called the police and shelters, etc. Even though chances are increasingly slim that we will ever see him again after a week away, yesterday and today the snow pretty much melted and Tim and I put on our boots and raincoats and walked all over the neighborhood (even through numerous neighbors' yards) for probably an hour each day in search of our cat, or his remains. But we found no trace of him. It is sort of a mystery where he went- we have covered all his favorite hiding places.
I'd gladly give up all our gifts to get our cat back.
we share your pain. One time we found our cat several days after a storm. He was locked in a neighbor's shed. Evidently they had opened it to get snow shoveling stuff, and Boots ran in to get out of the snow.
