Lil Eli is missing!!!

[moosmom]

I woke up this morning and noticed the screen in my front window was missing. I live on the second floor of a busy street.

I'm in a panic right now because Eli is missing. Usually at night, he comes up on my bed to be petted and in the morning, he cries to be fed. He did neither. I know sometimes he sleeps in draws and hides really good, but my gut feeling is, after seeing the screen on the ground (broken) that somehow leaned against it and fell out.

At around 6:30 this morning, I heard a ruckus and thought it was the cats playing around. I yelled at them to knock it off like I always do never thinking that is when it might have happened.

I'm on the verge of tears because I have to be at work and can't go look for him. I can't concentrate on anything I'm doing right now. I keep thinking he's out there somewhere scared to death!! I hope he's hiding under the porch or in the cellar.

I need prayers from everyone that he's just hiding and the wind blew the screen off the window. Not knowing is what's killing me. I walked around the apartment, opening drawers, calling him (not that he ever comes when I DO).

Please God, he's only a baby and still has a little feralness in him. If he IS out there, please take care of him and make him safe.
