A broken heart!

I AM DONE~ I have finally come to the conclusion that we are not a cat family. Right now my house is so quiet and peaceful..but not for long. Because when Maddie gets home the house is going to explode in emotion. MILO is gone. She is just going to lose it. This is her 4th cat. Just a quick recap on the last 4 cats. Daisy was hit by a car at our old house in Portland. only had her 4 months. Reilly ...hit by a car...(9months) Rascal stolen or ran away never came up dead (4 months) and now Milo...gone missing (4 months) As if last night wasn't crazy enough with Spencers "stomach ache". between running to the bathroom with him and answering the door for gouls and gobblins and feeding the others dinner..the cat ran out the front door on one of the treaters. In our rush to leave we forgot to make sure he got back in. I woke out of a sound sleep last night...remembering the cat got out. Normally if he gets out he plays for about an hour and then comes right back in..and if he gets left out when we leave he always hears us coming when we get home and races to the door to get in. And he is AWLAYS inside when we go to bed. So since I haven't seen him since he ran out...he is a gonner. The pisser about the whole thing...I told Maddie at dinner that we needed to lock him in the basement so that he couldn't sneak out when the treaters come. we forgot! Her sorrow will be the loss of her cat and also because Dan and I told her and have repeatedly told her that if something happens to Milo..that is it...no more cats. so it will be a double whammy this afternoon. The sorrow for mom and dad...all the stinkin' money we put into him...we just had him declawed and neutered! do you hear the toilet flushing too? Wish me luck!
