All Night


Libby was a farm cat her first 2 years and longs to go outside, so we put on her collar and let her out every day. She is usually very good about coming home, but last night she didn't return. I stayed up all night waiting for and worrying about her. I kept thinking "I hope she's okay" and "What am I going to tell Reese?" who loves her dearly. Finally at 5:30am I thought to check my phone. Thank goodness there was a message from one of our neighbors who found Libby at 11:30pm and had her in their garage. I called them at 5:30, apologized for our crazy cat and the middle of the night disturbance, and ran to pick her up. Libby was very happy to be home. She purred and snuggled up to me all night - or at least for the 3 hours of sleep that remained.
