Our dog Ginger went missing yesterday.  I suspect foul play.  I don't think she could have got our by herself.  I kept my eye open for her today on my run, and the kids will be making posters today.  Wish us luck.

Ah, man - sorry to hear that. Pretty upsetting to have a pet go missing like that...good luck finding her.

Thanks Joe. Someone found her and brought her back about 20 minutes ago. Kids are happy again.

Whew! Our cat went missing before we moved from Abilene and we never found it...I suspected foul play as well. But I didn't think I should tell you that story.

By foul play do you mean you murdered it?

From SlowJoe on Fri, Jul 10, 2015 at 18:13:17 from 45.18.50.53

I think someone poisoned both our cats, which we let freely roam the neighborhood as they pleased. Cat #2 started dying when the first one disappeared, and the vet couldn't figure out what was wrong with him. But I told the kids the missing one went to a special cat farm where everything was made out of yarn.

This sounds like a made for TV movie. If there's not one with this plot, you should seek the movie rights.

Glad you found your pet. I don't even like our dog that much, but I would still miss her if she disappeared.

I think I might like mine more if she didn't stink so much.
