Hi Christine, aww your so kind with your replies
, well there are 3 toms round here all neuted,who she spends time as friends normally, Ive seen them yesterday, one was seen to be hanging around a lock up at the back of some nearby shops all day friday, the lady in the sandwich shop told me this when we went in to ask about Rube, anyway we checked the lock ups but nothing, her normal routes we have covered, she doesnt really go far, (daytime) never been out after dark, with so unsure of the nearest male that isnt, neuted,across the road, it backs on to street, after street after street, posting the flyers even I became a bit lost, so 4 of 5 fences, would take you quite far, walking wise if that makes sense, I thinkbecause of the weather since she went, ( not stopped raining once) and the time of year and her little xmas stocking waiting, makes it worse to bear, I know she is lost, as if she was near she would come back, thats the kind of cat she is, so its that feeling of her being lost, making me so sad, more flyrs went out today, I keep checking the phone, and awaiting it ringing, but nothing so far, its quite a vast area, we placed her brother cat litter out with us, sprinkled bits of the stones, and contents of hoover, and placed my daughters pillow case, which she sleeps on with her most nights, on the line, its just as each night approaches I sink back into despair, thinking 5 nights now, and nothing, its so hard, tried to wrap some pressies today but just couldnt, the look on my childrens faces is also hard to bear, we do have foxes and also we have spotted a wild feret or stoke in our garden, Ruby not being so stret wise, sadly after almost a week makes me fear the worst, as she was such a routine little thing, 20 minutes sniff around and in, fingers crossed x x x
