Missing Sabastian...

Sabastian is one of my three cats. Following are yesterday's events that preceded his disappearance.
It was a very warm, sunny day. Dayv decided to get the swamp cooler going. He took the hose and sprayed it down. He then came back into the house and discovered the basement had flooded. He found the cause of the flood to be the pipe to the outside water had burst. He then, of course, tried to fix the problem. He went and bought new parts and attempted to sauder them together. This is when his loving wife came into the room and told him he was going to start the insulation on fire. About one minute later she hears: "Get the fire extinguisher!!!" He puts out the small fire. His wife then looks up at the ceiling and notices that it is glowing. The ceiling is now on fire. She then panics and starts screaming, "FIRE, GET OUT OF THE HOUSE!!!" and grabs her four sleeping children. The firemen come and make sure the fire is out while everybody stands outside. The wife is very worried now about the animals in the house. Dayv puts the dogs outside and tries to keep an eye on the open front door to make sure the three cats do not escape. After everything calms back down the cat search begins. Keltin is calmly sitting in the living room, Marlowe soon appears....Bastian....where's Bastian??? We look, and look and look. Alisha becomes very upset. Pets, to her, are just like family. The search has continued and Alisha is having a hard time with his disappearance but has been trying to keep busy cleaning up the huge mess so that she does not have to think about it.

Please pray for Bastian's safe return. It may sound silly to some of you but I really do miss him and worry that he is not well at this time. He recently had to have all his teeth removed because they had all rotted. I am trying to have faith that he will come back to us but it is very difficult for me.


On a more happy note, our insurance is giving us $2500 to pay for the damage. I would also like to thank everyone who was there for us at this great time of need.
