Not a good start to weekend... :(

Was chatting to a colleague at work this morning and she was describing a cat that had been run over and was laying in the road, it sounded very much like my neighbours cat, so I got more info then thought id text my neighbour to see if there cat was home...... he wasn't...

Sadly it was there cat, I feel terrible for having to tell them it was Simba so I rushed home from work before I had to go and do some work and gave my neighbour's husband a lift back home with their cat in a bag.... I felt soo sick cos I loved that cat like he was my own.

Have no idea how they will tell their daughter who is 5 that her cat is not coming home for his tea tonight breaks my heart!

RIP SIMBA... we will miss you and my cats will miss you too. sleep well little man.

On the plus side: the loan agreement is back signed so that's all the paperwork done for Mr Toby to come over... really am hoping to hear this weekend of a set date that he will join me.
I've got time off work for when he does arrive even managed to forewarn that if he arrives in night or early hours I am to call work up and get that day off yay so I can spend time with him, it can't come quick enough

Oh, your poor neighbour and poor you for having to tell them , the trouble is that cats are such free spirits and love to be out and about but street wise they are not and no match for a car.
Big vibes for all concerned , i hope the little girl isn't too upset , although i expect she'll be pretty upset , it's hard to understand at that age...
