The Cat Came Back

Edison came back this morning. He seems to have left us soon after blacknephewo left for Tel Aviv. We figured he had either been squashed or went off to find a better family. And we missed him. He was especially good at looking after the various kittens that seemed to show up from time to time, and the current batch of little ones are still afraid of us as Edison wasn't around to explain that we are good folk. He showed up this morning looking very thin, sad and bedraggled. His once soft and plush coat is matted and gnarly. So bwo shot him off to the vet. They gave him shots and rehydrated him. Seems he is surprisingly OK, just very hungry. He is going tomorrow to have his fur dealt with and his teeth looked at. I'm happy he is back, he is a very mellow soul and was missed around here. I wonder where he was.

Look P, it's quite obvious- Edison disappeared a few days after Blacknephewo moved to Tel Aviv. So he clearly went looking for Stevie. Never mind how horrid he look,both the vets were amazed at how healthy he is considering his 3 month absence and near starvation. Will get him all cleaned up tomorrow. Poor baby. (I don't have the heart to chuck him off the sofa)

Such a pity we cannot communicate with cats. They would tell us very interesting stories.

Maybe in the future - a not very near future - we'll be able to tap into the brains of our fellow creatures and learn a lot.

We have two cats, Katsi and Mitzi, they come and go, have some wounds, scratches on the nose or near the eye and we are left in the dark as to what happened.

I have always wanted to put a little camera on our cat to see where she goes on those 3 - 5 day disappearance acts. Looks like some people beat me to it.
