There is a path I walk daily through my neighborhood (only frightful weather keeps me from doing so) and about a month ago I noticed a sign posted around alerting us that a beloved cat was missing. I recognized him from the photo posted and had seen him often outside his house during the summer months. When I saw the poster of him and saw he was missing my heart just broke.
I prayed every day as I passed the house where I always saw him, and when I saw the posters, I prayed that he would return home to his family.
This morning as I walked by his house, there he was, peeking out from one of the home's bushes.
I smiled all the way home as I walked on this unusually warm and sunny Christmas Day.

A small blessing for you and a huge blessing for the family. Makes my heart happy that he made it home.

Hopefully the kitty's family would make him an indoor cat since they had the scare of him running away. Cats live so much longer being indoor kitties. I just read a stat=outdoor cats live 2-9 years, indoor cats can live up to 20 years and beyond!

Just when you think sometimes that prayers aren't answered, this beautiful thing happens.
OK, now I'm crying. But I'm smiling ear to ear. It's a Wonderful Christmas!!!

The picture of him was inside the house, so I just assume he's an indoor/outdoor guy. My 2 cats are indoor only, but I have had some that were indoor/outdoor as they demanded that (LONG stories!!!)
Yes, I would prefer him to be inside now, but the owners might have their own story.
I did call the number that was attached to the Missing poster, and it was the number for "Home Again". If the family didn't already know that he's back. I was going to knock on their door, but I saw no vehicle and think they must be somewhere else for Christmas. Home Again will notify them that there was a "sighting" and will give them my name and number if they need to reach me.

Yes, what is important in life doesn't come with a price tag.
Merry Christmas to you and everyone here!
