Default He's HOME!

He's a very, very spooked little boy and very jumpy, but we (as in my
brother and I) eventually found HRFL under the brambles in the lane at
the back of my house unharmed although shaken.

As a black cat, Thank Bast I had the sense to put a reflective collar on
him, as it was the reflection being picked up by my torch that enabled
us to see him huddled under the bush. There is no way we would have
spotted him otherwise as it was very dark we'd already looked in that
spot twice. I had even gone as far as contacting the 24 hour emergency
vet on the corner of my street as there is a busy road not that far away
that has claimed a few local feline lives.

I didn't know whether to yell at HRFL for being so stupid or give him a
big cuddle. The cuddle and kisses won. ;o)

Thanks for the purrs - They helped very much.

The little sh*t and his ******* cat tricks will be the death of me yet.

Lucky cat I can't wait till they get the next generation of the gps
tracker collars made for felines. It would be worth the $20 bucks a month
for it.


A hug for him , a swift kick in the butt for him than he be locked in a
room for the night till my nerves calmed down.

I am glad he is home Helen I know how you feel about no being able to find
them

HOORAY!!! What a relief! Poor boy, I hope this teaches him that the Big
Out isn't all it's cracked up to be.

The minute I have the money, my guys are getting radio collars. They
cost about £120 each and the unit is about £300. It's worth it for peace
of mind! ;O)

HOORAY! Don't scold him, he had a right to be spooked. Give him hugs and
skritches and kisses from us. Poor baby.

I'm just now reading this and am very happy that HRFL has been found. Purrs
for him to calm down soon and for your nerves as well.

They won't be able to lift their little heads off the ground! ;-)) Is
that going to be the jaguar model or the margay model??

So pleased to hear you found him, not far away and only frightened.
