My little Natalie is lost.

[AbigailFerris]

Some of you might recall the dreadful disappearance of Patch, my rescue kitty, from Animal Kingdom Vet Hospital in summer 2011 as a result of negligence on the part of Dr. Waldo's staff. In the endless search for him that ensued, I was honored with the love of a homeless kitten wandering the properties up and down Morris Street, parallel to the Laguna. After 8 months of this courtship, I finally brought Natalie home, cared for her, acclimated her to indoor life and, needless to say, fell madly in love with her.

Last evening, around 10:30, she found her way out of the house and has not been back. I saw her briefly on the outside of the fence surrounding the rear yard, but she wouldn't come to me. I'm heart sick about this, as I still mourn the loss of Patch, and will gratefully offer a reward to anyone who can help reconnect us.

Natalie is micro-chipped, but unlikely to let you pick her up. We now live in Rincon Valley near Maria Carrillo High School; however, there are always those stories about kitties wandering back to previous surroundings, so there's no telling how far she may get.

Please contact me immediately if you see a small blonde tabby with a clipped ear and no collar. I ask that you pick up the phone and just call me rather than relying on email or a posting here on the BB. Thank you.

Please pardon the delay with posting this update. She's home ...Thanks to some diligent prayer on my part, and lots of support from Dian! I camped out the better part of three nights, and around 10:30 p.m. Monday (the same time that she scooted out the door on Saturday), I left the sliding glass door open, went to use the bathroom, and lo' and behold - the little stinker just strolled right in. And, there she was on my bed!!!
