The goodbye I wrote for Mela was uploaded around two weeks from the time she disappeared.
The day after it went live, Mela came back!
She crawled in through my bedroom window, mewling, then made a run for her foodbowl. I could only gawk at her in disbelief.
The following morning, I gave her a bath and a hug. She has since stayed close to home, and taken to scaring the housemate’s dog just by sitting there.
Thank you to everyone who has sent her goodbyes, and to all those who wished her well upon news of her return.
Welcome back, my Mela. I missed you.
