Please bear with me here in writing this, I didn't know how hard it
would be to put into words.
I spend my weekends at my boyfriend's house and take the cats with
me (they love him and his dog, and I don't like leaving
them). Monday mornings I pack everything up including the cats, go
back in to say goodbye to Ed, and then drive the 20 minutes home.
This morning I loaded in my groceries, my school books, the cats, go
back in kiss Ed goodbye, grab my breakfast in a tupperware from the
fridge and go back outside to find someone in my car backing it out
of the driveway. The doors were unlocked, but there was no key
inside it, so they must have hotwired it. I ran at the car backing
up, yelling, "hey" and "get out" and banging on the windshield, I in
fact, smashed the tupperware against it, having no other weapons
(eggs went everywhere), but they kept going. I yelled that there
are cats in there, but they didn't stop. Ed heard me yelling and by
the time I got back inside, he was on the phone with 911.
As indoor cats they don't wear collars, though both are
microchipped. They ride well in the car as long as they're loose,
so they were loose. I don't know which is more likely, them to get
thrown out, or to be kept in. Satch is probably talking the thief's
ear off because he didn't get fed before we left. I am so scared
that they'll have been thrown out. Satch is a big guy, was found on
the streets, he can handle what is likely to present itself to him,
but the kitten....oh you guys, I'm so scared.
I would have thought they'd be a theft deterrant.
He threw my book bag out the window across from a nearby park, I
have no idea why that item of all that he could have (my overnight
bag, grocery bags, etc), and figure that it's God's way of saying
that even through this stress I still have to
study. ha. Ironically the 20 lb biology book was probably the most
valuable item in the car, not that its street value would amount to much.
Naturally, I've spent the morning searching that area to see if the
cats might have been tossed there, too, but haven't found
anything. Satch knows his name and comes to it, so I hope that they
at least stay together.
Pray that the police call ( I have Ed's cell phone, mine was in the
car, but maybe they'll be able to use it's tracking device to locate
it ), and pray that they have good news. Picture Satch and Beatrix
oblivious to my concerns and sleeping on the back seat, or hanging
out on a nice porch waiting for me to find them. Pray that they not
be stressed, but get back to me after a harmless adventure on their
end. please pray that I see them again and that they are unharmed.
Thank you all so much,
Leslie
