sorry, I saw another thread asking me how I found shaddow - once I got her in, everything went hectic - she was full of spider webs! and had pushed me to bathe all of my cats. (they were so so very dirty from moving, living in three different cellarooms) and now my ark is sparky! there were two men came yestafternoon, fixing last thing, the bathroom door! and put up 10 new blinders. then few hours later I sprained my finger. (took me a while to finish this post too!) and four people came this morning/noon to have furns in - (finally!) ..now I've just let them out of bathroom, they're too busy smelling, exploring new things and I have time to post without keeping an eye closely on all of my dear furrescapees! & guarding doors.

okay, here goes how!

I was sitting by a window, looking out on porch, a woman ran up to my door, she looked somewhat so happy - "I saw her! I saw her! *pointing at her house* come come!" I ran out, followed her to her backyard wooden fence. she told me she saw shaddow walking up right there but wasn't there when we ran up to it. so thought try to call her, asked woman if she could sit down, two people would be too much for shaddow. she backed up, I walked to the inside corner of fences, able to climb and look over into other backyard, see if I see her. nothing, so started calling. *POPS THERE SHE IS!* jumped on top of fence, *MEOWS*! she knew it was her meowmie. I bursted into tears, "yes that's her!! ohh!!" as talking to her, walked up closely, erm.... the fence was way taller than me! come, come down shaddow with my hand reaching up - she downed one paw for me to reach, I was on my toes, caught her and pulled her down gently, landed in my arms! I guess that was worth of walking around large, large neighborhood. what a scare.

she had big pupils, scared of course, but wow, she purred all suddenly, so happy to be back! in my arms especially. I didn't care if there was any spiders on me!

I sure wish I knew where she was at all time. two days ago where the woman thought she had seen her was on the street behind me, that fence woman's house is in front of me, across from the street.

as of right now I'm laying my tummy on carpet, typing this (on a pager), my precious precious shaddow is sitting in middle of my arms and, yes, kneading my right arm - tickle tickly! she smells really good also.

now, don't think anymore men would need to come in....the (sparky) little ark is all good!

thank you all so much for thoughts and hugs! why is it always with pet talk fuzzies coming back at least one or two days.. well, pet talk magic works!!

((((thankful hugs back))))
..meowmie & the trouby tonki-girl!
