St Phanourios, you have interceded for me when my own cats have lost their way and have never failed. Please, do the same for Iconodule and his family so that they may lift up their voices to God in joy and thanksgiving.

Praying your cat is found. I lost my cat so many times, and he always came home. I pray God watches over this cat as He did over my own.

Greetings in that Divine and Most Precious Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! Ouch! Unfortunately cat events such as these are tangible reminders that unlike dogs, cats are not human's slaves, rather they are more like our friends than pets, and always have the option to disengage the mutuality of our friendships and split town  EVERY single cat I have owned since I was in the first grade inevitably split, that seems to be what they do. Ironically, its those stray cats you wish would leave are the ones that stick around. I did have one cat for 15 years till she died, she was a true sweet heart, in fact, everybody seemed to like her for no reason, even notorious cat hating kinds of people would stop and pet her, strangers walking down the street would stop and pet her, she was a gem, and I do miss her.. But that is part and parcel of cat "ownership" and after a few cats we all seem to live with it (sort of of) stay blessed, habte selassie |

Well, it's been a month and we just about gave up hope, but I found her in one of our humane traps today and now she's back home! She's very thin and we're taking her to the vet today. All the same, much thanks to all of you for your prayers, and thanks to the Mother of God and all the saints, and glory to God!

Thank God she's okay and back home. So, she was on your property the whole time? |

Thank God she's okay and back home. So, she was on your property the whole time? We live in an apartment complex. She was in the woods across the road from our building- VERY close. Experts usually say that indoor-only cats like ours, when they get outside, seldom stray more than a mile from their home. |
