I got my cat's registration papers in the mail today. Normally that would be a non event, except tonight is the seventh night in a row he hasn't come home.
I miss him terribly. I miss the 15 minutes before my alarm goes off spent cuddling with him. I miss him sitting on my chest when I'm using my laptop, headbutting my chin and purring. I miss him sitting on my feet when I'm watching TV. I miss him ignoring me whenever he sees my boyfriend. I miss him headbutting his food box when I'm trying to feed him. I miss him following me when I go for a walk. I miss watching him sitting on the fence when I get home, waiting for me to open the door. I miss him jumping into my car when I get home and open the door, walking around having a good sniff to see where I've been. I miss the look on his face when it is hot and I rub him down with an ice cube. I miss hearing his purr.
I hate not knowing where he is. I really need to know if he is alive or dead. Whenever I drive, I'm scanning the side of the road looking for him. On the way to work on Tuesday I had to pull over because I saw a bundle of fur squashed onto the road. It wasn't him, but I still lost it for a little while.
I keep thinking I can hear his bell, and I get out of bed and walk around looking for him, or I mute the TV to listen more carefully. I keep hearing bells.
I just want my kitten back.

Blogger has been very contrary about posting comments! I made one earlier and an error screen kept popping up. Maybe it will go this time.
I hope you've found your pet cat!!! I know what it is to to love a pet so much...Butch is having a bout with his arthritis and I feel so sorry for him.
Let us know about your friend...
Oh, I'm so sorry! May the little one be found alive and well soon!!
(any other kitties in heat around there?)
I know how you feel. I'm sad for you :(. I lost one several years ago. He just up and disappeared.
:(
I'm so sorry your kitty's gone missing.
Any sign of him? Has he come home?
