My Mom and Step-dad went out of town this weekend and just came home today. My step-brother has been living at their house so they left him in charge of the 3 cats and took the dog with them.
Well they can't find Pumpkin now that they are home!! It snowed from like 2pm till just recently. We didn't get much accumulation wise but it's cold. Normally their cats only go out for short periods of time and don't stay out long. My step-bro let him out; so they know he is not in the house. Pumpkin is not a very big cat. Or a dominant one. They've checked his spots and have been looking and checking for him for over 4 hours now.
I'm guessing/praying he took shelter somewhere because no one was around to let him in. I'm not 100% sure it was today that he was let out either. My Mom sent me a text asking if it was 65 today and I said no way. It was 41 when I went to Walmart to grocery shop and 35 and snowing by the time I left. It was 65 on Saturday....but not today. He said something about it being 65...
I'm getting mad at my step-bro. How hard is it to take care of 3 cats for 2 1/2 days!? His mother's opinion on animal care has been let them out; if they come back they do, if they don't oh well. Most of my step-siblings seem to have taken this opinion as their own. But they all know we don't treat our animals that way. Have a little respect! Apparently he's been told to leave. Guess my step-dad has had it finally.
If the roads were safe I'd go up in a bit to check; but it's supposed to ice over tonight. I'm sure they are exhausted from the driving.
Mom said she put his cat box out on the patio and a heating pad. I hope she plans to leave it out all night. Hopefully he will find that and snuggle there. Poor boy. He's a totally lap baby; loves to curl up in your arms and snuggle.
Please pray Pumpkin comes home safe and sound ASAP...like tonight!
I can't post all of these details on Facebook since one of my step-sisters and other family are on there and it will come back to bite me in the tush.
