Blue Tuesday

Mom has been blue for a couple of weeks.  And then tornadoes started hitting hard around North Texas and then today in Oklahoma.  Two elementary schools raised.  Children taken too soon.  It makes Mom feel guilty for feeling blue.

This is Miss Gray. She has lived in our back yard for three years, at least, maybe more.


It took two years to get her to trust Mom and then Dad.  Mom took very good care of her.  Provided her a shelter and fed her twice a day.


 You can see how far she has come.  She  always presented her tummy for scritches.

She and Kirby had become  good friends.  He went outside every afternoon to visit with her.


And then two weeks ago, just two days after Mom and Dad came home form a trip, she disappeared.
Mom checked the shelters for her,but they have not taken any kitties that look like her.  Mom just hopes where ever she is, she knows she was loved.

I don't blame your human for missing Miss Gray and feeling sad. Yes, others have big tragedies they are facing, but it should not necessarily minimize her blue feelings.

big hugs to you, for taking care of Miss Gray and missing her. We've lost several strays like that. They just suddenly don't return. We feed them and water the ferals and strays and many wild animals here at the Swamp. It's heartbreaking when they don't return and you have no idea what happened.

I'm just now hearing about the tornadoes. Just dreadful.

Oh, I'm sorry. It's so hard to know what happened to her. . and I understand how you feel. I can't even touch "our" ferals yet I care for them.

We so understand your sadness here at the Very Best Cats. We had a beautiful outside cat named Smokey who also was with us for 3 or so years. Then gone. We were heart broken. And we are still sad. Smokey has not shown back up to this day, but that does not mean Miss Grey won't. We have heard miraculous stories of cats disappearing, only to show up again after some time. So don't give up hope. And we will hope with you. XXOO

Such a pretty girl. We will keep her in our purrayers and hope that wherever she is, she is getting good care.

What a beauty! We hope she comes back and don't think you should feel guilty about being blue over her disappearance! Also, we hope you have a basement or storm cellar if you live in T-nado Alley! xxoo
