I am about to have a very bad week. I haven't seen Sophia since yesterday afternoon. I've looked up and down the street. I've walked all around the yard calling her and saw no sign of her. She does wander a bit, but she has never been gone this long. I've checked the barn and the closets, no Sophia. I'm hoping against hope that a coyote didn't grab her, which is what I've always feared may have happened to Eve. There are large dog tracks in the side yard which may be the local coyote we've seen, along with deer and raccoon tracks. PopPop checked the barn cellar and has an eye out for her when he is in the yard. It isn't looking good. I feel like I've lost my best friend.

ReplyDeleteIt's after 11pm.
ReplyDeleteStay safe tonight Sofia.
Come home tomorrow.
Your mom isn't sleeping tonight.
She's gone. She has stayed out overnight only twice before and she was back first thing in the morning both times. I've called the local vets, nobody has brought her in. We've seen the coyotes come right up to the deck, so they would have no trouble grabbing her behind the stone wall where there are no trees nearby for her to go to. If she was able to get home, she'd be home by now.
ReplyDeleteThe other three cats are hanging close. Little One and Chubba have both slept with me the last two nights, and as much as I love them, it isn't the same. Sophia was different and I was very attached to her, as she was to me. I know it's nature and just the way things are, but I'm heartbroken. I'm going to miss her for a very long time.
