Hope this one helps...and I hope she comes home!! Several years ago we had just gotten a new kitten and she got outside...the day we were leaving for a week long church camp! We very quickly put up flyers in the neighborhood nearest our house and with tears in our eyes, left for camp (no cell service for the week.) When we got home, there was a message on our machine from the father of a young girl who had found our kitten. They took her to one of the local vets and we got her back!!! Wishing for a happy ending for you too.
