You may remember that my kitty pal Spider and I had started a search party for our friend Cricket the Barn cat over a month ago. When Cricket went missing (and stayed missing) for over a month Spider and I feared the worst. We hoped that she had found a new home, but despite flyers and drive-bys at the SPCA we had no clue what happened to our pal.

About to give up hope on the return of our friend, on one last stop in at the SPCA someone mentioned that there were some cats in the quarantine room that we may not have seen. As luck would have it, one of those cats was Cricket! Someone from a neighborhood near the farm (but surprisingly not that near) had found her and turned her over to the SPCA nearly 4 weeks earlier, and since then she had sat in the quarantine area because of a goopy eye (which she has been known to have).

I was so thrilled to have my pal back, and I think she was relieved to be home once again.

So Cricket, please no more wondering off – we love you too much!

P.S. Cricket and Spider have appointments to be microchipped just like I am! No more missing kitties on my watch.
