I had a wanderer! We thought he was gone forever, but then we were walking in the next neighborhood over, and saw him, and called to him. He looked at us with this dawning recognition... "Oh! I remember you!"
And he came over. he had a whole new family, and we ended up having to do a sort of joint custody.

That was one charming cat, I tell you.

Dixie might just be vacationing with another family, and will come back soon.
