XP: My cat came back!!

[berbles]

Posted on ML, but since not all of you read that board and I posted about it here too, I wanted to update!

Almost exactly 2 weeks after one of my cats got outside, I was awoken at 4:30 this morning to a scratching my my sliding glass door in my room. I JUMPED out of bed and called to her. She had run back into the shadows, but responded to my calls with a few MAUUUs and eventually came back inside. She's a little skinny (and spent about 10 minutes chowing down as soon as she came inside, while I stared at her and cried), but otherwise looks perfect. She's not even damp (it's been raining on and off the entire time she's been gone).



Her sister is not nearly as thrilled as I am that she's home. She keeps growling and hissing at her. I'm sure that will subside.



I'm fucking ecstatic. I don't know what kind of adventure she's been on, but hopefully now she'll stop trying so hard to get outside.

Yay! So glad she came back and was ok.

My cat got out (thanks for leaving the door open Dad) and was missing for 2 days. I found her under a neighbor's deck a few doors down.

Happy news! So glad she's home and safe!

Yay! My cat has given me a few scares and always came home like, "Yeah, I stepped out. So what?" Jerks! Glad you have a happy reunion!

Took her to the vet yesterday, just to be safe. All tests came back negative! Wooo!

And LOL, because the last time I took her to this vet was when she had surgery at 6 months old, after eating nearly 3 feet of thread off my sewing machine. Her weight was listed on her chart at 2.8 lbs. I know she lost some weight on her adventure, so I was concerned about needing to put weight back on her. She weighed in at 10 lbs exactly.  The vet said I did not need to worry about her putting weight back on. LOL

She didn't give a single fuck about being at the vet.  (heart)
