My cat, after five days of being missing, just showed up at 4am. After making everyone worried sick over her, after making me cry for days, after making me consider hiring professional cat-finding dogs to find her, she just strolls back in with the audacity to act like everything is normal. So the lesson here is: blessed be the patient. If anyone here is reading this, I hope you find yourself in the same situation as me. Frustrated and yet so deeply relieved, happy to feel as though you’ve wasted your time
