I always feel so safe here.
No my little miss has not returned and she's not going to.
But I have to tell you the rest.
As soon as I started knocking on doors, the whole neighbourhood dropped everything and galvanised into action. They spent hours looking for a cat they didn't even know. Most particularly 2 teenaged boys over the road. You know those guys that we really wonder about sometimes ? They had to be told to go home by my housemate. They were crawling under buildings, canvassing other neighbours.
I made three calls today to the council and the RSPCA. I could not have hoped for kinder, more understanding people.
Someone actually phoned back from the council to say that the officer concerned was at a a funeral, would get back to me tomorrow re the dog attack, and was I OK. Have you ever even heard of that ?
Every neighbour and friend has stopped today and asked for updates, and even tolerated my blubbering when they did.
Here's my point. The world has got MUCH more good stuff in it than bad.
Might not seem that way sometimes, but it has.
