A little misery
Oct. 7th, 2008 09:53 amRalik our little boy cat has gone.
It's day 11. New area, I think he just went out to have a reccy...hasn't come back. He's collared, microchipped, and now famous in the area as I have canvassed, put flyers on trees and lamp-posts and through doors, contacted the council, the local vets, the local charities...unfortunately the world is full of black cats with silver collars (local Tescos sells them), and one in particular keeps being identified as our hero. That cat is beginning to fear me. Every time it rests in a local garden, I magically appear and disturb it with my desperate coaxings. I keep hoping it will turn out to be him, and indeed it could be his twin...but it doesn't know me, and the collar is different.
larians is being strong as ever, but our feelings can well be imagined. Any catpeople out there, please send your thoughts Ralik's way, cos we love him.
Things have been a bit tough recent. The move was intense of course, and then came Maelstrom, at which I couldn't stay due to a meeting which then got postponed.
( Maelstrom; cut for the disinterested )
Or perhaps I am just very tired and disheartened. The move, a little exzema, the cat, the naff event, work and of course, the issue I mentioned to a few of you a few posts back, everything has just got on top of me. I can't focus and I really need to.
So, after this miserable post I start again.
