R.I.P.

Well... the news is... Kitty will not be coming home. Ever :(

I went to the pound this morning after finding that pic (see Blog post before this one) and it wasn't Chris. However I did discover that chris had been there the whole time since the day he disappeared but he had been in the sick, injured, feral area where the public is not allowed. I don't know the details as to why he had been in there, to be honest I didn't want to know. But when I got there this morning Chris had already been euthenized :( That morning to be exact :( apparently the pound only holds animals 10 days if they are in that area :(

While the closure is nice I am still torn to pieces. Chris had been my furbaby since he was 6 weeks old and that was 16+ years ago :(

Julian is at his dads this weekend and I am not sure how I will brooch the subject.

Do I Dare Hope???

I might have found kitty!!

I will drop julian off at glen's in the morning at 10am and that is when the pound opens too. they posted a pic today that I swear is chris!! I will update tomorrow after I look.

Julian's Class Pictures for 2008

Day 7..... sigh

It has been a week now and no sign of kitty at all :(

I have been checking with the pound's pic site every day and went down there myself today again while julian was at school. No luck :(

This is really hard on me. I have had Chris since he was 6 weeks old.. that was 16 years ago :( I sit at my computer and I keep expecting to hear him climb up the screendoor to come in at night.. and we pull into our parking space and I expect to see kitty come out from under the patio railing and run to the car. I walk by the patio door and look out the curtains just to see if he is sleeping on the patio :(

Julian asks me each night as we are saying our prayers and getting ready to sleep.. the he misses chris and he wants to find him. I keep telling him as long as our heart and head remember him he is always with us. now if only I could take that advice too but all I want to do is crumble into a soggy pile everytime I think about him and know that he isn't there.

Not that it would be any easier if I knew he was dead.. but at least I would have closure :( I miss my furbaby :(

Sigh

still no kitty :(

Here Kitty Kitty... (please come home)

Our kitty Chris has now been missing for 2 days. Julian and I checked the pound today with no luck. I keep checking the two websites that show the new arrivals but still no Chris :( Chris and Anna (his sister who passed in '04) had been with me since they were 8 week old kitties. Anna was my jumper and cohort in crime with chris lol. Anna would open things so chris could get out and explore. I have pics of him sharing the bassinet with julian as they slept on opposite ends of the bed. I keep expecting him to climb the screen door on the patio to come in or run out to greet us when I get home after picking up julian for school hoping to score on one of julian's french fries.

*sigh*
