One of my cat's went missing a few months back. She is scrappy. Would often bring us 'gift's'. Come into the house to eat, hang out and then leave after an hour. When the weather went bad, she'd stay inside. She has a wonderful disposition and purrs all the time. We looked and looked. Checked all her regular sleeping spots. Asked around. I thouight coyotes got her.

Fast forward to Saturday, my doorbell rings. A woman appears at my door and announces that she is my neighbor, the street behind my house and a few houses over.

My cat is sleeping in her backyard and is sick. Neighbor swears they never let the cat in her house, but they have fed her. Salmon from a can. People Salmon. The cat is now sick, will I come get the cat. I say ofcourse, as soon as hubby gets home. (I had just gotten out of shower from 4 hour bikeride and was fresh out of shower).

So he goes to the house, no one is home. He goes into the backyard and the cat, comes running to him and our 11 year old. She purrs.

She was skinny, scrawny, sick looking, red eyes, and a funny rash. Vet says she has allergic reation to something, he thinks it is the people salmon. She is on four medications. She loves being home. We are glad she is home. She has already perked up and is gaining weight.

Would you speak to neighbor? What would you say?

I'm so happy our cat is home with us.
