this thread is solely about my cat

edited October 2010 in Social Entropy++
as some of you may know less than a year ago i adopted kittens

they are sisters, mona and ophelia

now i am a person who loves cats and uses them for one of my main support systems

they always seem to be nice to me when i am feeling shitty, some sort of animal instinct i guess

this morning i recieved a facebook message from my ex roommate/girlfriend (whom some of you have met) and apparently ophelia ran away about 2 weeks ago and she didn't bother telling me about it until now. she did this because she is mad at me.

(the one on the right)

i was literally looking at pictures of her about 10 minutes before this news

i am so unbelievably angry and sad right now
i trusted her to take care of my cats, because we adopted them together

but not only did she lose her, in a racoon infested area, she did not tell me about it for petty reasons

i am currently in the process of trying to figure out how i can get the other cat, mona, to my parent's house as they are people i can trust to watch her

this is tricky considering i am far away

one last photo here we go

    I don't understand the connection between lost cat and raccoon infestations. Raccoons don't eat cats...they're not a natural predator. Are you afraid a raccoon will give your cat rabies or something?

    Your cat is dead because it was weak.

    You should have fed it more vitamins and provided a stable home.

    Raccoons do not aggressively search out and destroy cats though. It's not like they are kitty terminators.

    Also, don't count your cat out yet. Maybe it's like the Bear Grylls of kitties.

    I'm just saying your cat and raccoons are not on a PvP server. They're not required to gank each other.

    Is your ex roomate/girlfriend sick in her fucking head or something?

    What is it about people these days generally thinking they don't have to be human just because individualism is the order of the day?

    They cheat the instant they feel angry or upset or something more 'exciting' saunters by, apparently. They let other people down massively and tell them weeks afterwards because they don't feel like talking to someone they are mad at...

    Many low-quality people around these days.

    Your kitty is going to find a racoon skin it, wear it as a hat, drink it's own pee then traverse down a tree using your penis swill.

    Here's hoping.

    Dangit D: I thought the ending to the OP would have your kitty finding his way back to your ex's place looking a little ragged but none the worse for wear. Yeah, get that other cat to your parents. Sorry dude.

    Your ex is a stone cold bitch.

    I feel for you.

    I had a dream last night that I miss having cats. Because they are awesome.

    Could you facebook another Portland friend and see if they'll do the deed for you?

    I would so hard if I was in Portland.

    My family had a cat that disappeared for a month. We assumed it was dead, since there had been previous cats which went missing outside, and ended up getting another cat, only to have it come back a couple weeks later. About once every year after that, the cat would go on extended trips through the woods, only to come home none the worse for wear. We had originally gotten it as a stray, it was a Maine Coon cat with double paws, a survivor.

    So, it's possible that your cat is alright. But it is unlikely. Hoping for the former.

    Your cat is probably fine. They are rather resilient. If the bitch leaves food outside for it and keeps an eye out it may come back. Sometimes they don't wander far.

    i would be more optimistic but the ex has since then moved to a different place

    so if it does come back home, no one will be there for her

    the one shot is if she is alive, and someone finds her and takes her to the pound or wherever she has that chip in her that identifies the owner

    who is me

    so i would get a call, get a goddamned taxi for my cat to albany oregon where it would be safe
