Oh Cougie.......I hate to hear that. But what did the lady think she would do? Of course she ran off, just like she has so many times before. I hope she shows back up at your office. I can understand the owner's problems with keeping her indoors, when she has always gone in and out. I would have a mess on my hands if I tried it with Mimi and Butter, but if I knew that they were hanging out in a place where they might be taken to the pound, I'd force them to stay inside.
Oh, I hope Tascha is found.
