What is in Grand Forks?? Did he just drive the cat there and drop it off? The fact that he did this while you were asleep just shows that he was being a coward... no offense to your dad, but that's what it was. A very cowardly act on his behalf.

What about the stray? What is happening with that cat?

Can you get that poor No Name back? I'd just go and pick it up and tell dad to kiss my behind.
