The life of a pet-momma isn't easy.

Feeling so lucky. The dogs woke me up needing to go out-a bit unusual at nearly 3:am. Realized, while waiting for them, that Scathach (kitty on thyroid meds, v sweet & v skittish) isn't where she usually is. Check house. Remembered younger son didn't shut door properly earlier & it blew open. (I asked him specifically if she was in the house when he shut the door & he said yes.) So I checked whole house. Then I called out into heavy rain & wind. Nothing. 5 min later I hear faintest 'Mew' - my skinny little girl is at the back door!  So scary as she is skittish & has disappeared before - a storm like this could have sent her away.

But she is home, safe, being vehemently groomed by her brother.

Wonder if adrenaline will let me get back to sleep.
