Six months ago, my precious little Portia went missing after we moved house.
I tried absolutely everything to find her, with many leads, none of them turning out to be her, all of them different cats. A week ago I found a dead cat laying on the road outside my house. It wasn't my girl, but it...
I did try putting food out but our neighbour's have 4 cats and one of them will come in our house and eat Effie's food so I think it will just get eaten by one of them. Effie and Portia were close so I thought they would be together and the lady who found Effie has been keeping an eye out but...
My mum lives at the old house so she's been looking. We don't have crawl spaces in the UK.
It's the not knowing that's the worst part. I've complained to the vets who gave me the bad advice, hoping they don't do this to anyone else.
Stories like that give me hope but I don't want to risk too much hope because it leaves me hanging, if you know what I mean? Portia had a feral mother and she inherited a lot of that so I think she probably is fine and I need her a lot more than she needs me. :(
Thank you. I feel so guilty that I'm treating it like a death...which in a way it is. It's the death of our time together.
What aggravates me is people asking "Have you found your cat yet?" Because it almost sounds like "You should have found her by now."
That and if I'd found her everyone...
It must be awful for you. For you to lose George and then to lose another cat that way. It's horrible. :(
I think after Effie I'll be keeping my cats as indoor cats. I guess I just need to think of it as Portia wanted to go out, or she wouldn't have gone out when I opened the door. She was...
I think I have to start my grieving process. Portia's not coming back. I don't know what's preventing her from being found but I know she's not coming back now.
How do I move on? Everytime I think of her I want to cry. I want to go back in time and not let her out, but that doesn't exist...
I spoke to one yesterday as Portia will have been missing for 5 months on 22nd. When I first came away I felt hopeful, he said that she's near the old address and will appear at mum and dad's house (where she used to live) when the weather became colder and darker). Then when people said "Well...
Hi everyone,
I'm sorry I haven't been around. I've just been needing a break from all of this cat stuff. But I've come to tell you that Portia is still not home. However, I contacted a medium who is very legit with a 75% success rate. He told me that Portia is actually near the old address. My...
I'm so pleased to have so many commenting. I'm so sorry I've not been around lately. Just been sad lately. Haven't been functioning. She's not home yet. :(
