On Monday night our cat, Max, scratched at the door as if he wanted to go out. I opened the door and there was Betty, after a week and a half of being missing! She was afraid to go into the house because we have a porch cat that is possessive over the heated A-frame home she lives in. Jacques was able to shoo the tortoiseshell out so that Betty could come in.
Tyler and I were screaming so loudly, Betty didn’t want to come near us!
I don’t know where she’s been all this time but she didn’t look like she had lost any weight and there were no signs of frostbite. I wonder if she had taken refuge at a neighbor’s?
Well Betty’s telling no tales and I hope she doesn’t express a desire to go out until the spring!
She is such an affectionate, sweet cat, I am really happy to have her back!
Thanks to everyone who kept good thoughts about her safe return!

Emily Cullen is a pen-name.
I suffer from chronic illnesses and diseases which include Bipolar Disorder, Asthma, Diabetes and Fibromyalgia. I had battled Lupus and Rheumatoid Arthritis but there is no longer evidence of me having these diseases and my Rheumatologist has declared them to be "burnt out" of my system.
I am separated from my husband, “Grant”. Our son, “Tyler” was born in September of 2006 and suffers from tics and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and is delayed in fine and gross motor skills.
In my blog I seek to let sick moms know that they are not the only ones going through this, and to educate people about what can happens when one becomes catastrophically ill. I also strive to break down stereotypes of what a “Welfare Mom” is like. Anything that I have gone through due to being sick, is written on the pages of Mama Sick.
