What's upsetting you today? - Page 128

I'm hoping with you are lucky in this. Not to feel afraid, but excitement. and carefully with strangers.

Shawnee123 · 05-16-2008, 11:11 AM

dammit Flunt...need the SCF warning, please.

Sundae · 05-17-2008, 11:02 AM

Dylan was last seen (here) at midday Thursday.
So he's missed two nights at home and two evening meals (they get raw chicken & bones).

He always starts the night sleeping on my bed and ends up sleeping on me - stretched out along my bare body - in the morning. Sometimes I dream someone is touching my face or hair and wake up to find it's Dyl. Once I stir he usually shifts to the cat-bed while I sleep for another hour or so.

He's not at work - I've checked the cellar twice now, the tool store in the yard, the container, the fireworks store and the music room. Bascially all the lockable places.

I've been door to door among the neighbours and put up Missing Cat posters. He's microchipped, so I know he hasn't been taken into a cat rescue place or they've have scanned him and called us.

Upset. Yes.

DanaC · 05-17-2008, 11:30 AM

Oh shit, Sundae, that's awful. Keep us posted.

limey · 05-17-2008, 01:39 PM

Fingers crossed for you SG. Have you also checked with the local police for a) found animals and b) road incidents involving animals (sorry to be so gloomy)?
Usually, as you know, the cat comes home and never tells you where he's been! Hope this happens for you, too SG.

Sundae · 05-17-2008, 01:49 PM

The police scan cats for chips, so I know he's not been handed in (I activated an alert on his microchip).

I'll call the Council on Monday re road accidents - roadsweepers usually call them in. I've checked all the roads near me for evidence - even our local foxes are traffic aware and corpses are rare.

My assumption is he's snuck in somewhere and got stuck. Or monkey-nosed his way somewhere and been "adopted". Putting up posters and going door-to-door is all I can think of. I miss him.

Doctors! Now!
Dads has just been diagnosed with a Baker's Cyst. It's being treated with drugs because they caught it early, but there are some grim results if it isn't. Get advice!

Good luck. It's hard leaving friends and family but many people here have done it and survived to tell the tale.

DucksNuts · 05-17-2008, 11:55 PM

Im sure Dyl is just off having a little adventure and will be back telling you about it very loudly soon, Sundae

Cloud · 05-18-2008, 12:56 AM

SG: Keeping my fingers crossed and homeward thoughts for your kitty.

I'm planning to have a comprehensive medical exam in the next couple of months. Surely my knee problem will go away by then, but if not, I'll be sure to mention it!

Aliantha · 05-18-2008, 01:49 AM

My kids moved in with their father today.

Cloud · 05-18-2008, 02:57 AM

(cautiously) that could be a good thing. Or at least have a few silver linings.

DucksNuts · 05-18-2008, 04:44 AM

Oh Ali, thats gotta be tough.

How were the boys feeling about it?

Aliantha · 05-18-2008, 06:34 PM

We've all come up to the move with some trepidation, but as I've said to most people who've asked me the question, I'm hopeful that it'll be the best thing, but I am prepared for there to be at least a few teething problems so to speak. With any luck, that's all it'll be. It's really only for a little over six months till they finish out the school year, so all things being equal, we should all muddle through ok. The kids are ok. Semi-excited about getting two new homes all in the same couple of weeks, and setting up their new rooms in both houses etc. They have had some rocky periods with their father though, although things have been pretty good for the last year or so, so I'm pinning my hopes on that, as are the kids. Anyway, today is their first full day, so we'll see how that pans out.

Cloud, yes there are some things which will be good about it. The main one is that since Daryl and I met, we've really never had any time to just be a couple. He pretty much jumped in boots and all and became part of our family, so it'll be nice in a way to have that time to ourselves. Also, we've decided to try IVF after two years of trying and no pregnancy, so it'll be a good environment to explore that path in also.

xoxoxoBruce · 05-18-2008, 06:47 PM

Oh, it just dawned on me, your school year is opposite ours.

Aliantha · 05-18-2008, 06:55 PM

Yeah...if it weren't, it'd be the perfect time to move. Unfortunately, they're only just working their way through the second of 4 terms. It's not that long though. I just keep telling myself, it's really not that long.

Doesn't mean I don't still miss them like crazy already though.
