COCOA IS HOME! CELEBRATE WITH ME!
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=4105681&mesg_id=4105681

Not 15 minutes ago I was on the deck feeding Big Charley and Ginger, and I heard her out there in the trees! I called her and she mewed again, and we kept talking until I could just barely make her out against the leaves & dry grass. I brought her in to Mrs. V. and she was as stunned as I am. God help us, we both thought she was dead.

:woohoo: :woohoo:

:party: :bounce: :beer: :toast:

hmm... :beer: :beer: :toast: :beer:

:woohoo: :woohoo:

Kill the fatted Tofurkey! Cocoa is home!

:woohoo: :woohoo:

Thanks to everyone who kept good thoughts and/or prayed for her return.

:woohoo: :woohoo:

5. A song for the joyous occasion
Edited on Thu Oct-06-05 09:04 PM by MrScorpio
We’re gonna break out the hats and hooters
When Cocoa comes home
We’re gonna rev up the motor scooters
When Cocoa comes home to stay
We’re gonna park in the street
Sleep on the beach and make it
Throw down the jam till the girls say when
Lay down the law and break it
When Cocoa comes home

When Cocoa comes home
So good
She’s the pride of the neighborhood
She’s the raw flame
The live wire
She prays like a roman
With her eyes on fire

Co would you love to scrapple
She’ll never say no
Shine up the battle apple
We’ll shake ’em all down tonight
We’re gonna mix in the street
Strike at the stroke of midnight
Dance on the bones till the girls say when
Pick up what’s left by daylight
When Cocoa comes home

When Cocoa comes home
So bad
She’s the best friend we ever had
She’s the raw flame
The live wire
She prays like a roman
With her eyes on fire

When Cocoa comes home
So good
She’s the pride of the neighborhood
She’s the raw flame
The live wire
She prays like a roman
With her eyes on fire

8. I missed your OP, but I am glad Cocoa is home. My Lewis
went unseen for over 24 hours, at least by me, and I was getting worried. But he showed up Monday night fit as a fiddle.

He keeps getting himself lost turning into the little 6 inch wide alley between our chain link and the neighbor's 9 foot wooden fence...instead of coming into the gate. That is where he was Monday night. I wonder how long he had been back there. Silly furballs.


So Glad Cocoa is home where she belongs.

Wenchzilla ...I love it.

Especially since one of our is named CatZilla

24. She is keeping silent.
I think she knows we're never letting her out again, and that we might bend eventually -- unless she tells us what she was up to. She's wily that way. ;)

30. YAY!
My parents almost lost one of their cats about a month ago. They were on vacation and they hired this stupid %&#%&^*$ to keep an eye on the cats who LEFT THEIR FRONT DOOR WIDE OPEN! So anyway. My stepmom's cousin went to check on the kitties and saw the door was open. She found all the cats except Clarence, the orange one.



But he came home the next morning. PHEW!

I am so glad your kitty came home. :hug: What a relief!
