Sweet Sweet Memories

I LOVE animals... wow sure glad to get that out there. :) Really, everyone already knows this. It is amazing to me how animals come into our lives and our homes and they leave such a great impact. I have had so many wonderful pets and I still find myself crying when I think of them or remember the day I lost them.

Jamie's one cat FooMan has been missing since Sunday which is strange for him. He is always out at night hunting but his schedule is like clock work. Jamie had some new neighbor's move in and they put a chicken coop in their yard. This unfortunately would bring wild animals that might have not wandered their direction before like cougars, coyotes, bobcats... etc. It is hard not to fear the worse and Jamie and I had a good cry today on the phone. He isn't even my cat but I still love him and I know how much he means to Jamie's family.

After work today I drove around looking for him. Jamie and I had talked earlier about how it's almost worse not having a clue. That at least if you found him, you could have some sort of closure. We keep hoping he will turn up. Jamie's neighbors cat showed back up 4 months later so I guess you never know.

All night I have been thinking about FooMan and worrying and feeling so sad. In the midst of all that worrying, Jamie sent me an email from her hotel room (she is working out of town tonight) of pictures of Figaro when he was a kitten. We were gone for two weeks during Christmas when we found him and took him in so Jamie watched him for us. He was so adorable and Brinlee LOVED him. He was her baby and she would carry him everywhere. The video's Jamie has are awesome. I need to make sure to get them from her.

The trash can picture is the funniest and shows that he is the same little kitty. So curious and ALWAYS searching for food. So anyone that knows this straw loving, curious cat will get a kick out of that.
