I have not mentioned Fluffy before, as it was a rather painful subject for me. She was my girlfriend. She is a cute little calico. We used to play together, take naps in the sun together, gaze out the window together! She was my constant companion. Until one day when I awoke and she was gone. No note, no sign of her anywhere. I was devastated.
I had given up on her returning until just yesterday. I was following one of my people, as I know they need constant companionship at every moment, even in the bathroom. While they were distracted, I thought I caught a glimpse of Fluffy high atop a shelf. Was this her new home? Was she trying to hide from me? Or did she simply find herself stuck and in need of rescue? I had to find out. My frequent attempts to reach her were repeatedly thwarted by my people. For some reason they yell and chase me when I climb up on wooden furniture. I decided to wait and try again when they were not around.
Last night I made my move. They house was dark and quiet. I carefully balanced myself on the desk, then the shelf, then the next shelf. There she was! Quietly curled up just waiting for me to rescue her! Oh the joy of being reunited. We played and tumbled and took a nap together. I was so happy to show my humans when they returned later in the evening. For some reason they did not seem to share my joy. What do they know? I was just so happy to have my Fluffy back.
And then I awoke this morning. She was gone again. I suppose this was inevitable. She is a rather free spirit and I don't suppose she enjoyed being tied down as a housecat. I found myself checking all of her favorite hiding places to no avail. Sigh. I guess I am back to being single. But I will always have the fond memory of the return of Fluffy.
They're back!!! My humans have returned. I was beginning to give up. I gave them the cold shoulder, but decided I much preferred a warm lap to holding a grudge. Besides, I think I punished them enough with all the things I managed to get into while they were gone. Hopefully they will not pull a stunt like this again.
I am trying not to panic. They are not coming back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What am I going to do? I have not yet mastered the can opener. I will surely starve, unless I can rip through these screens and attack these annoying birds outside.............I must practice. Please excuse me if I do not blog for a few days as I must refine my survival skills. Who knows, with no caretakers and in this economy, I might actually have to learn to fend for myself!!!!!!!
I has been strangely quiet around here. I'm becoming increasingly convinced that the humans are not coming back. At least not my humans anyway. A pair of them showed up the other day and made themselves quite at home. I didn't mind so much though. They did make sure my food dish was full before they left. I have nothing left to do but eat, sleep, and keep myself groomed. No sense in letting myself go. On a brighter note, Fluffy did return for a visit, although, I have since discovered that she is not as interesting as I had remembered. Rather a quiet one.
Well, the people have been gone for quite some time now, and I'm honestly beginning to get worried. But I'm sure they will be able to find their way home. Especially when they start to get hungry. In the mean time, I am keeping myself amused. There is so much more to explore and play with when they are not here to get in my way! 
Yes, my loyal readers, I have been lazy. Isn't that what felines are supposed to do? I do apologize for my extended absence. I was, more accurately, on strike against the humans after an incident a few weeks ago involving a plant and a toothbrush. I won't go in to details, except to say that I have forgiven them. 
Can't we just relax to a little Billie Holiday or Glenn Miller?
